An average global luminance value is determined based on auto exposure configurations of first and second image sensors.

In some cases wherein updating the auto exposure configurations using the delta luminance values would breach a threshold representing a target luminosity for the scene, the use of the delta luminance values may be limited or those values may instead be discarded.
