Apparatus and method for generating moving image data including multiple section images in electronic device

A method for generating a moving image of an electronic device, the method comprising:

• obtaining a plurality of image frames comprising external light generated from an external light source and an external object at a first designated frame rate using an image sensor, based on a capturing signal;
• identifying a frequency of a flicker related to the external light source;
• generating first section images for at least a part of a time for which the plurality of image frames are obtained using frames selected from the plurality of image frames corresponding to a second designated frame rate based at least on the frequency, the second designated frame rate being lower than the first designated frame rate;
• and
• generating second section images for at least a part of the time for which the plurality of image frames are obtained in response at least to a designated input using image frames obtained at the first designated frame rate after the designated input from among the plurality of image frames.

An electronic device comprising:

• an image sensor configured to obtain a plurality of image frames comprising external light generated from an external light source and an external object at a first designated frame rate, based on a capturing signal;
• a processor configured to store a generated moving image;
• and
• an image signal processor,
• wherein the image signal processor is configured to:
• receive the plurality of image frames from the image sensor;
• identify a frequency of a flicker related to the external light source;
• generate first section images for at least a part of a time for which the plurality of image frames are obtained in the image sensor using frames selected from the plurality of image frames corresponding to a second designated frame rate based at least on the flicker frequency, the second designated frame rate being lower than the first designated frame rate;
• generate second section images for at least a part of the time for which the plurality of image frames are obtained in the image sensor in response at least to a designated input using image frames obtained at the first designated frame rate after the designated input from among the plurality of image frames;
• and
• transmit moving image data comprising at least the first section images and the second section images to the processor.

An electronic device comprising:

• an image sensor;
• a memory;
• and
• a processor,
• wherein the processor is configured to control the electronic device to:
• obtain a plurality of image frames comprising external light generated from an external light source and an external object at a first designated frame rate using the image sensor, based on a capturing signal;
• identify a frequency of a flicker related to the external light source;
• generate first section images for at least a part of a time for which the plurality of image frames are obtained using frames selected from the plurality of image frames to correspond to a second designated frame rate based on the frequency, the second designated frame rate being lower than the first designated frame rate;
• generate the first section images based on a designated input not occurring while the plurality of image frames are obtained using frames selected to correspond to the second designated frame rate;
• and
• generate second section images having the first designated frame rate based on the designated input occurring for at least a part of the time for which the plurality of image frames are obtained using image frames obtained after the designated input from among the plurality of image frames.
