Abstract
A method for automatically producing a digital image includes selecting at least one capture mode for capturing at least two image signals from an image capture device. The image capture device captures at least two image signals of the same scene in a RAW format, each image signal being captured according to the image capture mode. A file in a standardized format comprising each image signal and metadata representative of the capture mode is generated and stored. The created file is digitally processed by selecting at least one processing algorithm to process at least two image signals according to the metadata representative of the capture mode, and by fusing at least two image signals according to each chosen image processing algorithm into a fused digital image signal.
