7. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein the camera control module is further configured to output the image with a different rotation speed according to the movement speed of the lens.
8. The electronic device of claim 1 ,
wherein the output device includes a vibration module that provides a vibration, and
wherein the camera control module is further configured to differently output a vibration according to at least one of the movement direction, a movement distance, and a movement speed of the lens.
9. The electronic device of claim 1 ,
wherein the output device includes an audio output module that is configured to output a sound, and
wherein the camera control module is further configured to differently output a sound according to at least one of the movement direction, a movement distance, and a movement speed of the lens.
10. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the camera control module is further configured to control a depth of field of at least one subject in response to a user input for the image.
11. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the camera control module is further configured to apply a blur image effect to the at least one subject.
12. A method comprising:
obtaining focus information of a subject to be captured by using a camera operatively connected to an electronic device;
moving a lens of the camera in a movement direction to focus the camera on the subject based on at least the focus information; and
providing guide information corresponding to the movement direction of the lens through an output device operatively connected to the electronic device.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the moving of the lens comprises:
determining at least one of a movement distance, the movement direction, and a movement speed of the lens based on the focus information.
14. The method of claim 12 , wherein the providing of the guide information comprises:
providing an image corresponding to the guide information through a display; and
differently outputting the image according to at least one of a movement distance, the movement direction, and a movement speed corresponding to the lens.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the differently outputting of the image comprises:
rotating the image in a clockwise direction when the movement direction of the lens is a first direction; and
rotating the image in a counterclockwise direction when the movement direction of the lens is a second direction.
16. The method of claim 14 , wherein the differently outputting of the image comprises determining a rotation speed of the image according to the movement speed of the lens and displaying the image.
17. The method of claim 12 , wherein the providing of the guide information comprises:
differently outputting a vibration according to at least one of the movement direction, a movement distance, and a movement speed of the lens.
