Abstract

A technique is provided to allow an optimal image data compression by compressing image data, collected by a camera, on a more suitable compression condition. In a method for compressing image data, an electronic device generates preview data of an original image collected through the camera, calculates a first compression ratio based on analyzing complexity of the preview data relating to pixel distribution of the original image, and compresses a capture image, selected in response to a capture command, corresponding to the preview data on the basis of the calculated first compression ratio.
