Taking Still Pictures
The L-WC17 wide angle conversion lens is available as an optional
accessory. (1p.135)
Simply screwing this useful accessory onto the front of the camera
provides a wide angle equivalent to 27.75 mm (1.1 in) on a 35 mm
(1.4 in) camera.
Using a Wide Angle Conversion Lens (Optional)
• The L-WC17 wide angle conversion lens is designed for use with
the camera zoom at the maximum wide position (w). Using the
lens with the zoom in the x position will result in poor quality
images and is not recommended.
• Do not use a filter with the wide angle conversion lens as this may
cause vignetting in the corners of the picture.
• Vignetting may occur at the bottom of the picture if the camera is
too close to the subject when using the built-in flash.
The L-WC17 wide angle conversion lens can be used in Movie
mode. In that case, use it with the camera zoom at the maximum
wide position (w) as in Still Picture mode.
