Abstract
This disclosure relates to a camera device and a method for capturing images by using the same. The camera device includes a liquid crystal lens array composed of a plurality of liquid crystal sub-lenses, an image sensor and a drive module. A preset distance is provided between the liquid crystal lens array and the image sensor, and the drive module is electrically connected with the liquid crystal lens array. The drive module is configured to adjust a focus of each liquid crystal sub-lens during capturing based on a distance between an object to be captured and a corresponding liquid crystal sub-lens, such that light rays from each object are focused respectively in a plane where the image sensor is located after passing through the corresponding liquid crystal sub-lens.
