9 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein

when the first shooting mode is the macro mode, the determining a first shooting mode based on the one or more images captured in the first time period is specifically:

determining object distances of the one or more images captured in the first time period; and

determining, based on that each of the object distances is less than a preset value, that the first shooting mode is the macro mode.

10 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein

when the first shooting mode is the night scene mode, the determining a first shooting mode based on the one or more images captured in the first time period is specifically:

determining illuminance of the one or more images captured in the first time period; and

determining, based on that the illuminance is less than a preset value, that the first shooting mode is the night scene mode.

11 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein

when the first shooting mode is the portrait mode, the determining a first shooting mode based on the one or more images captured in the first time period is specifically:

determining object information of each image of the one or more images captured in the first time period; and

determining that the first shooting mode is the portrait mode when the object information of each image indicates that each image comprises a portrait, and a portrait area is greater than a preset value.

12 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein
