Apparatus and method for processing an image in device
A method of processing an image using an electronic device is provided. The method includes displaying at least part of a first image which is obtained through a first image sensor and at least part of a second image which is obtained through a second image sensor through a display unit which is functionally connected to the electronic device, storing the at least part of the first image, storing the at least part of the second image in response to a detecting of a signal, and storing the at least part of the first image and the at least part of the second image to be simultaneously replayed as at least one image.
1. An electronic device comprising:
an image sensor;
a touchscreen display; and
a processor configured to:
display a preview image obtained through the image sensor in real time on a first area of the touchscreen display,
generate a first still image from the image sensor, in response to a first user input,
display the first still image on a second area of the touchscreen display separated from the first area, while maintaining the display of the preview image on the first area,
generate a second still image from the image sensor, in response to a second user input received while the preview image is displayed on the first area and the first still image is displayed on the second area, and
display the first still image on the second area of the touchscreen display and the second still image on a third area of the touchscreen display.
2. The electronic device of claim 1 ,
wherein the image sensor comprises a plurality of image sensors, and
wherein the processor is further configured to:
display a first preview image using a first image sensor of the plurality of image sensors, and
display a second preview image using a second image sensor of the plurality of image sensors.
3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
receive, via the touchscreen display, another user input to operate the image sensor, prior to the displaying of the preview image.
4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to change position and size of the second and third areas, in response to another user input.
5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the second area is separated from the third area, and positioned in proximity to the third area.
6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
combine at least two images including the first still image and the second still image, and
store the combined image in a memory.
7. The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
display the combined image in response to a user input.
8. A method of processing an image using an electronic device, the method comprising:
displaying a preview image obtained through an image sensor in real time on a first area of a touchscreen display;
generating a first still image from the image sensor, in response to a first user input;
displaying the first still image on a second area of the touchscreen display while maintaining the display of the preview image on the first area;
generating a second still image from the image sensor, in response to a second user input received while the preview image is displayed on the first area and the first still image is displayed on the second area; and
displaying the first still image on the second area of the touchscreen display and the second still image on a third area of the touchscreen display.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the electronic device comprises at a plurality of image sensors, and
displaying the preview image comprises displaying a first preview image using a first image sensor of the plurality of image sensors and displaying a second preview image using a second image sensor of the plurality of image sensors.
10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
receiving, via the touchscreen display, another user input to operate the image sensor, prior to the displaying of the preview image.
11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising changing position and size of the first and third areas, in response to another user input.
12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the second area is separated from the third area, and positioned in proximity to the third area.
13. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
combining at least two images including the first still image and the second still image, and
storing the combined image.
14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising:
displaying the combined image in response to a user input.
