Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a camera having two or more cameras responsible for different illuminances. The present disclosure includes a first camera, a second camera, an illuminance sensor sensing an ambient light illuminance or a subject illuminance, an interface unit configured to connect to an external device, and a controller configured to photograph a first camera image through a first camera, photograph a second camera image through a second camera by performing a first camera operation switch when an illuminance sensed through the illuminance sensor is equal to or smaller than a first illuminance, photograph the first camera image through the first camera by performing a second camera operation switch when the illuminance sensed through the illuminance sensor is equal to or greater than a second illuminance higher than the first illuminance, and control one of the photographed first and second images to be transmitted to the external device through the interface unit.
