An image processing apparatus includes a feature value extractor extracting a feature value from an image; a setting unit setting setting information for applying a process to the image; a recorder recording the setting information in association with the feature value in a data recording medium; a synchronizing unit synchronizing the feature value in the recording medium with the extracted feature value; a reader reading, when the feature value in the recording medium is synchronized with the extracted feature value, setting information recorded in association with the synchronized feature value from the recording medium; a reflecting unit reflecting the process applied to the image on the basis of the read setting information; a display image generator generating a display image by combining an object indicating the read setting information with the processed image; and a selector selectively supplying the setting information to the reflecting unit or the display image generator.
