Abstract
Various implementations provide different image adjustment parameters for post-processing a multi-frame image generated from multiple individual images. A computing device includes an image sensor that is configured to capture and generate multiple images of a scene. The multiple images are then aligned and pixel values of the aligned images are combined to generate a multi-frame image with reduced image noise and improved image sharpness in comparison to each of the multiple images. The computing device then applies different adjustment parameters to the multi-frame image in order to generate an output image that provides a high-quality representation of the scene. In implementations, the computing device automatically selects and applies adjustment parameters to a multi-frame image based on a number of individual images used to create the multi-frame image.
