| Summary: | A video signal processing apparatus includes: an imaging section for imaging a subject to generate a video signal; an outline emphasis processing section for emphasizing an outline portion within the imaged image, the outline emphasis processing section detecting the outline portion based on the video signal which is output from the imaging section and emphasizing the outline portion by using an externally-input outline emphasis control signal; an imaging control section for generating at least one imaging control signal for controlling an imaging operation of the imaging section; and an outline emphasis control section for generating an outline emphasis control signal for determining a level of emphasizing the outline portion in accordance with the at least one imaging control signal, and transmitting the outline emphasis control signal to the outline emphasis processing section. The video signal processing apparatus is able to perform an appropriate outline emphasis process under any imaging condition and provide a good image quality. |
