Abstract

A method and an apparatus for dual recording shooting in an electronic device including a dual camera are provided. The method includes acquiring a first picture from a first camera that is in an operation state, acquiring a second picture from a second camera that is in a wait state, outputting the first picture at a first resolution, downscaling the second picture to a second resolution, outputting the second picture downscaled to the second resolution, and synthesizing the first picture and the second picture that is downscaled to the second resolution and previewing the synthesized result, using a Picture In Picture (PIP) function and, when a dual recording start instruction event occurs, restoring the second picture that is downscaled to the second resolution to a previous resolution, outputting the second picture restored to the previous resolution, synthesizing the first picture and the restored second picture, and recording the synthesized result.
