Abstract
A method includes: acquiring a first level value in a first color area; acquiring a second level value in a second color area; calculating a first corrected level value by adding X % of a difference between the first level value and the second level value to the first level value; calculating a second corrected level value by subtracting Y % of the difference from the second level value; specifying a first corrected level position and a second corrected level position at a boundary between the first color area and the second color area; and measuring a bokeh amount of the image at the boundary between the first color area and the second color area by multiplying the distance between the specified first corrected level position and the specified second corrected level position by 100/(100−X−Y).
