The difference between wide-angle cameras and ordinary cameras

The differences between wide-angle cameras and ordinary cameras are as follows:

1. Different viewing angles. The viewing angle of wide-angle cameras is usually more than 100 degrees, while the viewing angle of ordinary cameras is generally 50 degrees. -80 degrees. In other words, the wide-angle camera can capture more scenes and objects and provide a wider picture effect. Ordinary cameras, on the other hand, pay more attention to the details and contours of the objects being photographed, and are closer to the perspective of the human eye.

2. The perspective effect is different. When shooting distant views with a wide-angle camera, there will be a strong perspective deformation effect, which is the so-called "fisheye effect". This phenomenon will not occur with ordinary cameras and is more realistic.

3. Due to the special viewing angle of the wide-angle camera, its shooting effect will be better in some specific scenes. For example, for the Selfie function that everyone often uses, wide-angle cameras can capture more people and scenery, and better show the entire scene; in addition, in terms of car cameras, wide-angle cameras are also more popular because they can better show the road surface. situation and surroundings of the vehicle. The ordinary camera is more suitable for taking personal photos, portrait photography and small-size scene photography.
