  • Patent number: 12621557
    Abstract: An electronic device receives a shooting input while displaying a preview image based on at least a portion of images obtained through a camera having a first field-of-view (FoV). The electronic device obtains a video of the first FoV through the camera, in response to the shooting input. The electronic device identifies a visual object included in the preview image, while obtaining the video. The electronic device displays the preview image, based on a second FoV that includes the visual object, and is included in the first FoV, in response to an input indicating selection of the visual object. The electronic device obtains meta data indicating reproduction of the video based on the second FoV corresponding to the input, among the first FoV and the second FoV, where the meta data is associated with the video obtained based on the first FoV.

  • Publication number: 20260025569
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a display, a camera, and a processor. The processor receives, while displaying a preview image through the display based on at least portion of image frames obtained through the camera, an input with respect to a preset button. The processor switches to an auto framing mode in response to the photographing input. The processor identifies a first area matched to a subject captured by the camera, and a second area including a preset portion of the subject in the first area. The processor, based on predicting a moving direction of the subject in the image frames by a position of the second area in the first area, displays the preview image by performing cropping with respect to at least one of the image frames.
