Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. An electronic device comprising:
an image sensor;
an illuminance sensor, the illuminance sensor being separate from the image sensor;
a processor configured to be operatively connected to the image sensor and the illuminance sensor; and
memory configured to be operatively connected to the processor,
wherein the memory stores instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the electronic device to:
acquire a plurality of first images having a first attribute and at least one second image having a second attribute for a designated time by controlling the image sensor according to a photographing mode of the image sensor determined based on illuminance detected through the illuminance sensor and scene information detected through the image sensor,
extract information on an event section when an event is detected from the plurality of first images, and select and buffer at least one third image from the at least one second image according to the photographing mode,
generate at least one piece of first content based on the information on the event section of the plurality of first images, and
select at least one fourth image by evaluating at least some of the at least one third image, and generate at least one piece of second content based on the selected at least one fourth image,

wherein the instructions further cause the electronic device to:
acquire the plurality of first images in a first rate for the designated time,
acquire the at least one second image in a second rate in a first photographing mode according to the determined photographing mode, and
acquire the at least one second image in a third rate in a second photographing mode, and

wherein the second rate is configured to be relatively longer than the first rate and the third rate is configured to be relatively longer than the second rate.
