Abstract

A method in an electronic device includes detecting, with one or more processors, initiation of an image capture operation using an image capture device situated on a first surface of the electronic device and having a first field of view extending away from the first surface in a first direction. In response to detecting the initiation of the image capture operation, the method includes actuating a second image capture device situated on a second surface of the electronic device and having a second field of view extending away from the second surface in a second direction. The method then captures image content with the second image capture device and presenting the image content on a display situated on the first surface of the electronic device. Thereafter, the one or more processors capture at least one image with the first image capture device.
