An image sensor includes a color filter array including a first color filter including a first number of blue pass filtering elements, the first number of red pass filtering elements, and green pass filtering elements in a first pattern, wherein a number of the green pass filtering elements in the first pattern is twice the first number, and a second color filter including a second number of blue pass filtering elements, the second number of red pass filtering elements, and green pass filtering elements in a second pattern, wherein a number of green pass filtering elements in the second pattern is twice the second number, and the second number is greater than the first number. The second color filter may surround an area of the first color filter.

Single image sensor for restoring images corresponding to various fields of view

Provided are a lens assembly and an electronic device including the lens assembly, the lens assembly including a first reflector configured to rotate around a first rotation axis, a second reflector configured to rotate around a second rotation axis, a plurality of lenses, and an image sensor configured to generate a plurality of captured images having different capturing views based on a rotation of at least one of the first reflector or the second reflector, in which the first reflector, the second reflector, the plurality of lenses, and the image sensor are provided in sequential order from an object's side.

Lens assembly and electronic device including the same

An imaging device may generate a zoom image corresponding to a plurality of magnifications by adjusting an effective focal length through a multi-layer optical system including an active imaging array having an active imaging lens.

Imaging device

Provided is a lens assembly including a first lens array including a first lens having positive refractive power, a second lens array including a second lens having negative refractive power, and a third lens array including a third lens having negative refractive power, wherein the first lens array, the second lens array, and the third lens array are sequentially provided from an object side toward an image sensor side, wherein the first lens has a biconvex shape that is convex toward the object side and convex toward the image sensor side, and wherein each of the second lens and the third lens has a meniscus shape that is convex toward the image sensor side.

Various embodiments of the disclosure relate to an electronic device and a method of acquiring an image of the electronic device. The electronic device may include a first camera, a second camera which includes an image sensor, a mirror for transferring light incident from the outside to the image sensor, and a driving device capable of rotating the mirror in at least one direction along at least one rotation axis, and which has a view angle smaller than a view angle of the first camera, and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to acquire a first image including one or more external objects by using the first camera, select at least some objects of the one or more external objects included in the first image or at least some regions of the first image, and acquire a second image in a state where the mirror is rotated by the driving device such that the view angle of the second camera is moved to a location corresponding to the selected at least some objects or at least some regions. Various other embodiments are also possible.
