Lookup table interpolation in a film emulation camera system
An image capture and processing system accesses an image including image data. The image processing system receives a selection of a preset configuration. The preset configuration identifies first and second image effects, a first intensity value corresponding to the first image effect, and a second intensity value corresponding to the second image effect. The image processing system accesses a set of stored lookup tables (LUTs). Each accessed LUT in the set of stored LUTs is associated with the first and second image effects, and is associated with intensity values within a threshold proximity of the first and second intensity values. The image processing system generates a combined LUT by interpolating the accessed set of stored LUTs. The image processing system processes the image based on the combined LUT.
