Digital still color cameras (DSCs) have gained significant popularity in recent years, with projected sales in the order of 44 million units by the year 2005.

This article presents an overview of the image processing pipeline, first from a signal processing perspective and later from an implementation perspective, along with the tradeoffs involved.
