Abstract: The present invention relates to a night image output apparatus, comprising: a photographing unit comprising an optical pulse output unit for outputting optical pulses and an image sensor for forming a plurality of images using optical pulses reflected by an external object; a display unit for outputting a final image made by synthesizing the plurality of images; and a control unit for calculating object distance information displayed in each pixel of the final image, by using data of a light quantity ratio of the plurality of images to each pixel of the final image and a light quantity ratio related to distance.

Abstract: Photographing apparatus and method for controlling the photographing apparatus are disclosed. The present invention comprises: a lens; a beam splitter; a first image sensor for outputting first image data; a second image sensor for outputting second image data; a display unit for displaying the first image data; and a control unit for correcting the pixel value of at least a part of the first image data displayed on the display unit on the basis of brightness information obtained from the second image data, and when a malfunction of the first image sensor is detected, adjusting the exposure value of the second image sensor to the exposure value of the first image sensor and displaying the second image data on the display unit. According to the present invention, a photographed image can be improved, and an image can be stably output even when an image sensor in a photographing apparatus malfunctions.
