1. A method for adjusting image capture settings for an image capture device, comprising: capturing depth information of a scene at the image capture device, the depth information identifying objects at various depths from the image capture device within the scene; identifying depth regions of different depths based on the captured depth information; adjusting an image capture setting independently for each of the depth regions; and performing a single capture of an image of the scene with the image capture device, the image capture device applying the image capture setting of each of the depth regions when the image of the scene is captured; wherein the depth information consists of a depth mask, the depth mask containing a plurality of bit values for a plurality of pixels which define the captured image of the scene, each bit value corresponding to one of the depth regions.
