1. A method for capturing an image using an image stored in a camera, the method comprising:

  • receiving images from an image sensor;

    converting, at each one of a plurality of first time points separated by a first predetermined interval, one of the received images corresponding to the one of the first time points into a preview image, and displaying each preview image on a display;

    generating, at each one of a plurality of second time points separated by a second predetermined interval having a different length than the first predetermined interval, a high-resolution image from one of the received images corresponding to the one of the second time points, each high-resolution image having a higher resolution than each preview image;

    providing the generated high-resolution images sequentially to a first buffer and a second buffer;

    temporarily storing the sequentially provided high-resolution images sequentially in the first buffer and the second buffer; and

    storing, in a separate area of memory, in response to an input of an image capturing signal, a high-resolution image sequentially temporarily stored in the first buffer and the second buffer.
