The mobile terminal includes: a camera configured to capture an image; and a controller configured to control the camera to perform a video capture function, wherein in response to a partial image/video generation event sensed while the video capture function is being performed, the controller processes at least a portion of an image captured by the camera after the sensing of the partial image/video generation event, as a partial image/video discriminated from video being continuously captured according to the video capture function.
