  • Publication number: 20090268080
    Abstract: Provided are an apparatus for and method of processing a digital image, specifically, a bracketing apparatus and method for use in a digital image processor, which can reduce a photographing time by calculating focuses for all detected faces by moving a focus motor only once after face detection, and then performing bracketing by compensating the focuses by an interval of the focus motor applied while calculating the focuses of each face. The bracketing apparatus includes a digital signal processor, which detects one or more faces from a live-view image, detects focus values for all detected faces by moving a focus motor only once, and then performs bracketing by compensating a focus by an interval of the focus motor applied while detecting the focus values of each face.
