A color chart and an illumination unevenness correcting chart are shot by
a digital camera 1 under the same illumination, and color data on a first
image obtained by shooting the color chart and color data on a second
image obtained by shooting the illumination unevenness correcting chart
are input to a color processing parameter editing apparatus 2 for
generating a color processing condition used in color processing to be
performed on an image shot by the digital camera 1. A correcting unit 204
corrects the color data on the first image using the color data on the
second image. Target color data corresponding to the corrected color data
on the first image is input. A parameter optimizing unit 205 generates a
color processing condition for converting the corrected color data on the
first image into the target color data.
