Abstract
This application discloses an image capture control method and apparatus, and an image capture device, wherein the method comprises: configuring different exposure periods for at least two photosensitive areas of a photosensitive array; determining start exposure times of the photosensitive areas, wherein a start exposure time of a photosensitive area having a relatively long exposure period is earlier than a start exposure time of a photosensitive area having a relatively short exposure period, and exposure of the photosensitive areas is completed in a longest exposure period of the exposure periods; and controlling exposure of the corresponding photosensitive areas according to the determined exposure periods and the start exposure times of the exposure periods. This application can improve quality of an HDR image by using a total exposure time as short as possible.
