Digital photographing apparatus and method for controlling thereof

摘要

A digital photographing apparatus for performing an Auto Focusing (AF) function and a method for controlling thereof, the method including: measuring vibration degrees of the digital photographing apparatus; determining based on the measured vibration degrees whether a time is right before an AF operation is performed; if the time is right before the AF operation is performed, performing a preceding AF operation of determining a moving direction of a focus lens by moving the focus lens; and if a first shutter release button is pressed, performing a subsequent AF operation of moving the focus lens in the determined moving direction. Accordingly, an AF operation time (from after a user pushes a shutter) may be reduced by decreasing a moving distance of a focus lens and the number of direction changes by recognizing a behavior pattern of the user through vibration transition measured by a vibration detection sensor.

主权项

1. A method for controlling of a digital photographing apparatus, the method comprising:
measuring vibration degrees of the digital photographing apparatus; determining based on the measured vibration degrees whether a time is right before an auto focusing (AF) operation is performed; if the time is right before the AF operation is performed, performing a first preceding AF operation of always moving a focus lens by a predetermined distance away from a subject to determine a moving direction of the focus lens for a subsequent AF operation; and if a first shutter release button is pressed, performing the subsequent AF operation of moving the focus lens in the determined moving direction.
