no. 1 example

[0030] see figure 1 , figure 1 It is a flowchart of a camera switching method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the method is applied to a mobile terminal, the mobile terminal includes at least a first camera and a second camera, and the first camera and the second camera work independently ,Such as figure 1 shown, including the following steps:

[0031] Step 101. Identify subjects within the current viewing range of the first camera.

[0032] In the embodiment of the present invention, the fact that the mobile terminal includes at least the first camera and the second camera may be understood as that the mobile terminal may include other cameras besides the first camera and the second camera. For example, the above-mentioned first camera and the second camera are rear cameras, and the mobile terminal may further include a front camera and the like. Of course, in some scenarios, one or both of the first camera and the second camera may be front cameras. ...

[0046] see figure 2 , figure 2It is a flowchart of another camera switching method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal includes at least a first camera and a second camera, and the first camera and the second camera work independently. And the first camera is a wide-angle camera, and the second camera is a telephoto camera or a standard camera, such as figure 2 shown, including the following steps:

[0047] Step 201. Identify subjects within the current viewing range of the first camera.

[0048] Step 202. Determine whether the subject can be fully displayed within the viewing range of the second camera, and if so, determine that the subject satisfies the preset switching condition.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present invention, judging whether the subject can be fully displayed within the viewing range of the second camera can be understood as a process of estimation, that is, the judgment ...

[0082] see Figure 4 , Figure 4 It is a flow chart of another camera switching method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The mobile terminal includes at least a first camera and a second camera, and both the first camera and the second camera work independently, such as Figure 4 shown, including the following steps:

[0083] Step 401 , identifying subjects within the current viewing range of the first camera.

[0084] Step 402. Determine whether the current first camera is a telephoto camera, and if so, determine that the subject meets the preset switching condition.

[0085] In this embodiment, through step 402, when the first camera is a telephoto camera and the second camera is a wide-angle camera or a standard camera, it can be determined that the subject meets the preset switching condition. Because the viewing range of the telephoto camera is small, the main body of the first camera must be fully displayed in the viewing range of the second camera. ...

Abstract

The invention provides a camera switching method and a mobile terminal. The method comprises that a main body within a viewing scope of a first camera at present is identified; whether the main body satisfies a preset switching condition is determined; if YES, the main body is marked and displayed; and when a camera switching operation input by a user is received, the first camera is switched to a second camera. Thus, shooting requirements of the user can be met by switching viewing, and user experience is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a camera switching method and a mobile terminal. Background technique [0002] With the advancement of user requirements and technology, many mobile terminals are currently equipped with multiple cameras, for example, a front camera and a rear camera. Even some mobile terminals are configured with an integrated dual camera as a rear camera to achieve functions such as improving the clarity of taking photos and simulating optical zoom. Wherein, the integrated dual camera may be two different cameras assembled together to realize switching between different shooting modes. For example: Assemble a wide-angle camera and a telephoto camera, and then use software to synthesize simulated optics to switch between the two shooting modes of close-up and long-range. Since the viewfinder ranges of the two cameras are different, the viewfinder after switching may not meet the user's shooti...
