Abstract

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing, a first image sensor configured to provide a first angle of view, a second image sensor configured to provide a second angle of view, and a processor. The processor is configured to obtain a first image having first resolution for a plurality of objects outside the electronic device, the plurality of objects corresponding to the first angle of view, to obtain a second image having second resolution for some objects corresponding to the second angle of view among the plurality of objects, to crop a third image having the second resolution, corresponding to at least part of the some objects, from the second image based on at least a depth-map using the first image and the second image, and to compose the third image with a region corresponding to the at least part of the some objects in the first image.
