A wide angle digital camera can be very useful for different reasons but first let's answer the most important question:

What does a wide angle lens do?

Wide angle lenses give you a view "further back" in the frame than your typical 35mm lens. They are especially useful indoors where you can capture more of a room in your photo.

A lens is considered wide-angle when it's 30mm or below.

Wide angle digital camera can be very useful for real estate agent or anyone who wants to take interior photos of a house.

If you work in the real estate industry or simply needs to take good interior shots and want to get a wide angle digital camera you should consider the following:

• Purchase a digital camera that comes with a wide-angle lens as standard (at least 28mm) or accepts an optional wide-angle converter (converters may cut off your viewfinder view, in which case the LCD monitor becomes an important feature when selecting your digital camera wide angle lens)


• Select a digital camera who also accepts a powerful external flash which provides the full wide-angle coverage.

Many digital camera models take lens adapters that can use wide-angle add-on lenses, but these can be heavy and bulky, not the most practical solution.

For those with a larger budget, I would recommend a digital SLR with ultra wide angle lenses.

Another alternative to digital camera wide angle lens would be to take a number of panoramic shots and later stich them together.

You can achieve pretty good results using this method but it is time consuming.
