Abstract

An electronic device having a first and second camera deployed on one side of the electronic device, a memory, and at least one processor configured to acquire a plurality of first image frames for external objects using the first camera based on an input corresponding to a photographing signal, acquire a second image frame for the external objects using the second camera while acquiring parts of the first image frames, generate depth information for the external objects based on the image frame corresponding to the second image frame among the plurality of first image frames and the second image frame, generate a first corrected image by combining a plurality of designated image frames among the plurality of first image frames, and generate a second corrected image in which parts of the external objects included in the first corrected image are blurred based on the depth information.
