A mobile terminal including a camera having an image sensor; a memory; a display; and a controller configured to synthesize first image data generated by a first exposure and second image data generated by a second exposure, store a log image in the memory obtained by applying a log profile to the synthesized image data in a first mode, and display a first image on the display obtained by transforming the log image in a second mode. Further, the controller controls the first exposure and the second exposure based on first exposure information corresponding to an average brightness information and a maximum brightness information of the synthesized image data.
