ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a combination image-capturing apparatus and method. A combination image-capturing apparatus according to the present invention comprises a main body, a combination image-capturing unit installed on the main body to be location-changeable that include first and second signal processing units, and first and second recording media. The combination image-capturing apparatus further comprises a mode selection switch unit for generating an operation mode signal corresponding to a selected image-capturing unit according to position changes of the combination image-capturing unit, a photo switch for generating an image-capturing trigger signal, and a control unit for controlling storage of the first and second formatted signals in the first recording medium and the second recording medium if the image-capturing trigger signal is received. Accordingly, the present invention enables one photo-switch to store images in a recording medium corresponding to each of the image-capturing units independently driven to capture the images, thereby eliminating inconvenience arises from using separate photo-switches, as well as reducing the volume of the image-capturing apparatus.
