Abstract:
A photographing apparatus is provided that is capable of minimizing an access bandwidth of memory included in the photographing apparatus and is capable of reducing power consumption, and a method of controlling the photographing apparatus. The photographing apparatus includes a distortion correction unit for performing distortion correction on a captured image by performing image processing; a digital zoom unit for performing digital zoom on the captured image by performing image processing; and a host central processing unit (CPU) for controlling the photographing apparatus to perform one of the distortion correction by the distortion correction unit and the digital zoom by the digital zoom unit. A method of controlling the photographing apparatus is also provided. In addition, a recording medium having recorded thereon a computer program to implement the method is also provided.
