Abstract

This application provides an imaging method. The imaging method is applied to an imaging apparatus including a color camera and a black-and-white camera, and resolution of the black-and-white camera is higher than resolution of the color camera; and the imaging method includes: obtaining a zoom magnification; simultaneously capturing a color image and a black-and-white image of a target scene, where resolution of the black-and-white image is higher than resolution of the color image; performing cropping processing on the black-and-white image and the color image separately based on the zoom magnification, where the cropped black-and-white image and the cropped color image have a same field of view; and merging the cropped color image and the cropped black-and-white image to obtain an output image of the target scene. Therefore, according to the optical imaging method provided by embodiments of this application, the obtained output image can have a better optical zoom capability.
