Abstract

In an example embodiment, method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method includes accessing image capture parameters of a plurality of component cameras at a first time instant, where the image capture parameters for a respective component camera of the component cameras are determined based on a scene appearing in a field of view (FOV) of the respective component camera. At a second time instant, a change in appearance of one or more objects of the scene from a FOV of a first component camera to a FOV of a second component camera is determined. Upon determining the change of the appearance of the one or more objects at the second time instant, image capture parameters of the second component camera are set based on image capture parameters of the first component camera accessed at the first time instant.
