Wide Angle

By , About.com Guide

Definition: Wide angle refers to a lens or a digital camera with the capability to shoot photos with a wider field of view than normal human vision.

If the digital camera lens has a 35mm film camera equivalent measurement of less than 35mm, it's considered a wide-angle capability. A measurement of about 50mm is considered to be similar to human vision.
