Claim 14:
15. An electronic device, comprising:
a camera module; and
a processor operatively connected to the camera module,
wherein the camera module includes:
a micro-lens array;
a color filter array including a plurality of color filters, wherein each of the plurality of color filters selectively passes a wavelength of incident light, which passes through the micro-lens array, and
a light-receiving element array disposed below the color filter array,

wherein the micro-lens array is arranged in an N/2×M array, the color filter array is arranged in an N×M array, and the light-receiving element array is arranged in an N×M array, wherein M is larger than N, and
wherein the processor is configured to obtain pixel values of an M×M pixel array from the light-receiving element array arranged in the N×M array by obtaining M pixels from data acquired by N light-receiving elements in a row.
