The present disclosure provides a control method, a control device and an electronic device. The wide-angle camera is started first. Then, the displayer is controlled to display a cached wide-angle image as a preview image. Next, a designated area is identified and the telephoto camera is started during zooming the preview image. Further, the actuator is controlled such that a cached telephoto image is located in the designated area, and the wide-angle camera and telephoto camera are controlled to image respectively. Finally, the wide-angle image and telephoto image are combined. With the control method and device and the electronic device in the present disclosure, the telephoto camera may image the designated area when the user zooms the designated area of the cached wide-angle image, thereby enhancing sharpness of the designated area and improving the user experience.
