Abstract

An electronic device includes a plurality of cameras, a memory, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to identify a change in a distance between a focused subject and the electronic device within a first frame through at least some of the plurality of cameras while a video with a bokeh effect is acquired. The at least one processor is also configured to provide the bokeh effect of the video within a first background area in a second frame in response to identifying that a difference between a first distance and a second distance is within a criterion range. The at least one processor is further configured to provide the bokeh effect of the video within a second background area identified based on a third distance in the second frame in response to identifying that the difference is out of the criterion range.
