Abstract

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.
