Abstract:
Disclosed in various embodiments of the present invention are a method and a device for correcting white balance during image capturing in an electronic device. According to the various embodiments of the present invention, a display and a processor functionally connected with the display are comprised, wherein the processor can be configured so as to: acquire an image including one or more objects; determine a first area corresponding to a face among the one or more objects in the image; determine a second area corresponding to the background among the one or more objects; confirm the ratio between color information of the first area and color information of the second area; correct, on the basis of a first level, white balance corresponding to the first area if the ratio satisfies a set first condition; correct, on the basis of a second level, the white balance corresponding to the first area if the ratio satisfies a set second condition; and display, through the display, an image of which the white balance corresponding to the first area has been corrected on the basis of corresponding one level between the first level and the second level. Various embodiments are possible.
