Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device disclosed herein includes: a display, a memory, a processor, and a camera, the camera includes a lens unit including a lens, a prism rotatable in a first direction or a second direction, a driving unit including at least one coil configured to move the prism, a magnetic body coupled to the prism, a sensor unit including a sensor configured to detect a first amount of rotation of the prism in the first direction or a second amount of rotation thereof in the second direction, and an image sensor configured to generate an electrical signal using light passing through the lens unit and the prism, wherein the processor is configured to: determine a first region of interest (ROI) for execution of a specified function using the camera, determine the first amount of rotation or the second amount of rotation using a sensing value of the sensor unit, and determine a second region of interest by correcting the first region of interest of the camera using the first amount of rotation or the second amount of rotation.
