the processor is further configured to enlarge the stored still image at a magnification ratio calculated by using a ratio of an overall size of the object to an overall size of the stored still image.

11. The image processing device of claim 1 , wherein the first camera is further configured to capture a motion picture and store the captured motion picture in a storage, the display is further configured to display a preview image of the motion picture captured by the first camera, and

the processor is further configured to edit the stored motion picture by using the generated gaze map.

12. The image processing device of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to determine the gaze zone at each time point from the gaze map, and crop an area around the gaze zone at a time point corresponding to each frame included in the stored motion picture.

13. The image processing device of claim 12 , wherein the processor is further configured to generate a cropped motion picture by incorporating a plurality of cropped frames.

14. The image processing device of claim 13 , wherein the processor is further configured to store the cropped motion picture in the storage.

15. The image processing device of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to determine importance for each frame of the stored motion picture based on the gaze map, and adjust a reproduction speed of the stored motion picture or emphasize at least one frame based on the determined importance when a user interface for reproducing or editing the stored motion picture is provided.

16. An image processing method comprising:

capturing an image of an object by a first camera;

displaying the captured image on a display;

monitoring movements of eyes of a user by a second camera;

generating a gaze map including information about a gaze zone on the display based on the movements of the eyes monitored at a predetermined interval; and

generating a motion picture based on the generated gaze map and the captured image.

17. The image processing method of claim 16 , wherein the captured image is a preview image, and the generating the motion picture comprises generating the motion picture based on the generated gaze map and the preview image.

18. The image processing method of claim 16 , wherein the generating the motion picture comprises:

determining the gaze zone at each time point from the gaze map; and

generating a plurality of cropped images by cropping an area around the determined gaze zone corresponding to the time point at each time point in the captured image.

19. The image processing method of claim 18 , wherein the generating the motion picture comprises generating the motion picture by incorporating the plurality of generated cropped images.

20. The image processing method of claim 16 , wherein the capturing the image comprises:

capturing a preview image until a still image capturing signal is input;

capturing a still image when the still image capturing signal is input; and

storing the captured still image in a storage.

21. The image processing method of claim 20 , wherein the gaze zone corresponds to a part of the object included in the stored still image, and

the capturing the still image comprises:

enlarging the stored still image at a magnification ratio calculated by using a ratio of an overall size of the object to an overall size of the stored still image when the gaze zone moves within a range equal to or less than a second threshold value for a time over a first threshold value; and

cropping the enlarged still image.

22. The image processing method of claim 16 , wherein the capturing the image comprises capturing a motion picture and storing the captured motion picture in a storage,
