Abstract
Provided are a photographing control method and apparatus according to motion of a digital photographing apparatus. The photographing control method may prevent inconvenience when a subject is photographed while changing a viewing angle by using an additional zoom button, by sensing predetermined motion via a motion sensor comprised in the digital photographing apparatus and calculating a first motion value; comparing the calculated first motion value to predetermined threshold values; and controlling a zoom lens to be driven in a predetermined direction according to a result of the comparing.
Claims20
A photographing control method according to motion of a digital photographing apparatus, the photographing control method comprising:
- (a) sensing predetermined motion via a motion sensor comprised in the digital photographing apparatus, and calculating a first motion value;
