More Information
Summary:According to an embodiment, an electronic device may include an image sensor including a plurality of unit pixels, and at least one processor electrically connected with the image sensor. Each unit pixel may include PDs disposed under a micro lens and having a 2x2 arrangement, that is, a TL, a TR, a BL, and a BR. The at least one processor may acquire a first image frame from the image sensor, determine an operation mode of the image sensor based on the first image frame, and may perform AF of an H direction by using TL, BL, or TL+BL AF data and TR, BR, or TR+BR AF data, or may perform AF of a V direction by using TL, TR, or TL+TR AF data and BL, BR, or BL+BR AF data according to an operation mode of the image sensor. Various other embodiments understood through the specification are possible.
