A method of performing scene-dependent lens shading correction (SD-LSC) is provided. The method includes collecting scene information from a Bayer thumbnail of an input image; generating a standard red green blue (sRGB) thumbnail by processing the Bayer thumbnail of the input image to simulate white balance (WB) and pre-gamma blocks; determining a representative color channel ratio of the input image based on the scene information and the sRGB thumbnail; determining an ideal grid gain of the input image based on the representative color channel ratio and a grid gain of the input image; merging the ideal grid gain and the grid gain of the input image to generate a new grid gain; and applying the new grid gain to the input image.
