1. An electronic device, comprising:
a display;
a camera module including a first camera having a first angle of view, and a second camera having a second angle of view different from the first angle of view; and
a processor operatively coupled to the display and the camera module,
wherein the processor is configured to:
acquire a first image with a first magnification using the first camera, and display the acquired first image on the display;
while acquiring the first image using the first camera, receive an input requesting changing an image acquisition magnification of the camera module from the first magnification to a second magnification;
change a distance between the first camera and the second camera in response to the input;
upon detecting that the changed distance between the first camera and the second camera is less than or equal to a threshold distance, or when the distance between the first camera and the second camera is greater than the threshold distance, that a first range of the first image is fully within an estimated second range of an estimated second image corresponding to the second angle of view, switch from the first camera to the second camera; and
acquire a second image using the second camera, and display the acquired second image on the display.
