1. A handheld device, comprising:
a Wide camera for capturing Wide images, each Wide image having a respective Wide field of view (FOVW);
a scanning Tele camera (STC) for capturing Tele images, each Tele image having a respective native Tele field of view (FOVT) smaller than FOVW, wherein the STC is configured to scan with the native FOVT within FOVW; and
a processor configured to capture the Tele images autonomously, to apply a particular strategy for the autonomous capturing of the Tele images that depends on an analysis of Wide image data, and to personalize the particular strategy for the autonomous capturing of the Tele images according to a preference of a particular user, wherein the Wide image data analysis provides a personalized saliency map based on Wide image data.
