component between the neighboring pixels, this function
emphasizes that luminance difference (edge compo-
nent).When the focusing is correct, the visibility of image
will become much better by using this function. As the de-
cision whether the focus is correct or not is possible by con-
firming the image on the display, the more accurate focus
becomes possible. And also, as many function regarding this
peaking operation, for example, the changing of the setting
about the width and level of peaking, the synchronizing op-
eration of peaking with the zooming position and the
COLOR PEAKING feature are introduced into this model,
this peaking function can be applied for the focusing opera-
tion in the various situation.
