The embodiment of the invention discloses a double-camera system, a double-camera adjusting method and a terminal. The double-camera system is applied to the terminal, and a shell of the terminal is provided with a cavity area. The double-camera system comprises two turnover components, two cameras, a laser ranging part, a processor and a motor, wherein the processor generates a driving instruction, the motor receiving the driving instruction drives the turnover components to rotate, and the two cameras rotate along with the turnover components, so that by rotating the turnover components, the two front-mounted cameras or the two rear-mounted cameras or one front-mounted camera and one rear-mounted camera are obtained; the laser ranging part transmits the distance value between a laser transmitting point and a laser receiving point to the processor, the processor judges whether or not the two cameras meet the requirement of the parallelism degree of the optical axis according to the distance value, if not, the processor generates the driving instruction, and the motor receiving the driving instruction drives the turnover components, so that the two cameras meet the requirement of the parallelism degree of the optical axis, and the definition of shot images is improved.
