Abstract
A camera with multiple lenses providing different optical zoom levels captures time-aligned frames from each lens concurrently based on a user control. The user indicates a desired post-capture zoom level for the image on a user interface. Based on the user-selected zoom level, selected frames are fused and a digital zoom is determined based on the lenses' optical zoom levels and the desired post-capture zoom level. A multi-frame image processing pipeline generates a final image having the digital zoom using the fused frames.
