  • Patent number: 11743585
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes at least one camera module including at least one lens, a first sensor configured to detect a motion of the electronic apparatus, and at least one processor configured to perform a first focusing operation of determining a target position of the at least one lens by focusing processing on a subject and moving the at least one lens to the target position, and perform a second focusing operation of, according to a determination that a first condition that a photographing distance, which is a distance to the subject, is less than a distance reference value and a depth-of-field value is less than or equal to a depth reference value is satisfied, additionally driving the at least one lens based on a calculated focusing correction value for compensating a motion.

  • Patent number: 9706074
    Abstract: A method is provided including: capturing a first set of images, wherein each one of the first set of images is captured in accordance with a different value of a camera setting; generating a second set of reduced images, wherein each of the second set of reduced images is a reduced version of a respective one of the first set of images; generating, by an electronic device, a third set of composite images, wherein each one of the third set of composite images is generated by HDR-compositing the second set of reduced images in accordance with a different weight-ratio; receiving a selection of a first composite image, the first composite image being part of the third set of composite images; and storing a second composite image, the second composite image being generated by HDR-compositing the first set of images in accordance with a weight ratio associated with the first composite image.
