1. An electronic device, comprising:
a display;
a plurality of cameras;
at least one processor; and
memory storing instructions, which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to:
display, on the display, a preview image based on at least a part of a first image acquired using a first camera from among the plurality of cameras;
receive a first input for magnifying the preview image while a second image is being acquired using a second camera among the plurality of cameras;
in response to identifying that a magnification level of the preview image exceeds a threshold level, change the preview image from at least the part of the first image to at least a part of the second image,
wherein activation of the first camera is maintained after the preview image is changed from the at least the part of the first image to the at least the part of the second image, and
wherein the instructions further cause the electronic device to:
receive a second input distinguished from an input magnifying the preview image before receiving the first input, and
in response to receiving the second input, activate the second camera before receiving the first input.
