Abstract
An aspect of the disclosure provides an electronic device. The electronic device may include a lens assembly, an image sensor including multiple unit pixels configured to convert the light passed through the lens assembly into an electrical signal, and a processor electrically connected to the image sensor to output an image based on the electrical signal. At least one unit pixel included in the multiple unit pixels includes a micro-lens and at least two subpixels formed to correspond to the micro-lens, and the processor is configured to acquire multiple electrical signals from the at least two subpixels, identify a ratio of the multiple electrical signals, and determine, based on the identified ratio, whether flare is generated due to refraction or reflection of the light.
