1. A mobile device, comprising:
a Wide camera that provides Wide images with a Wide field of view FOVw, wherein the Wide camera includes a Wide lens with a Wide lens optical axis and a Wide image sensor;
a Tele camera that provides Tele images with a Tele field of view FOVT smaller than the FOVw, wherein the Tele camera includes a Tele image sensor; and
a camera controller configured to move FOVT relative to FOVw, causing other portions of a scene to become a Tele image,
wherein a ratio M=FOVT/FOVw is 3/4 for the Wide and Tele image sensors having a 4:3 aspect ratio or 9/16 for the Wide and Tele image sensors having a 16:9 aspect ratio.
