What is the "angle of view"?
The angle of view refers to the extent of a scene that a camera lens can capture in a photograph. It is the angle between the widest and narrowest parts of the scene visible through the lens. A wider angle of view allows more of the scene to be included in the frame, making it suitable for landscapes or large groups. A narrower angle of view captures less of the scene, which is useful for focusing on specific details or subjects. The angle of view is influenced by the lens's focal length and the size of the camera's sensor.
