The tone display method includes the steps of coding the image signal in the plurality of weighted subfields the plurality of weighted subfields including a plurality of most significant subfields having respective weights which are substantially equal to one another, and a plurality of less significant subfields having respective weights each of which is less than each of the weights of the most significant subfields, a sum of all of the weights of the less significant subfields being greater than each of the weights of the most significant subfields, the coding being chosen from a plurality of codings all representing substantially a same tone level when a tone level of the image signal is not less than each of the weights of the most significant subfields, and displaying the image signal coded with the chosen coding.
