Abstract

An electronic device includes a lens part that receives light from the outside, an image sensor that changes the received light to electronic image data, and an image processing unit that processes the image data. If a saturated pixel is included in the image data, the image processing unit measures the amount of light of the saturated pixel by using an increasing or decreasing value of brightness of a plurality of unsaturated pixels around the saturated pixel.
