Abstract

Systems including dual-aperture zoom digital cameras with scanning optical path folding elements (OPFEs) for automotive or surveillance applications and methods for operating and using same. In some embodiments, a dual-aperture zoom digital camera comprises a Wide camera with a Wide field of view FOV, a Wide sensor and a Wide lens, wherein the Wide camera is operative to output Wide image information, a Tele camera with a Tele field of view FOVsmaller than FOVand with a Tele sensor, a Tele lens with a Tele lens optical axis and a scanning OPFE, and a processing unit operative to detect an object of interest (OOI) from Wide and/or Tele image information and to direct the Tele camera to move FOVto acquire Tele image information on the OOI.
