Shooting with a Super Wide Angle of View (Wide Shot)

With this feature, a number of images are shot and then combined to produce an image with a super-wide angle of view that exceeds the widest angle of view possible with the lens. Converted to 35 mm equivalents, the focal distances available with this feature enable shooting with approximate angles of view of 14 mm and 18 mm.
