    Hello everyone. I use a wide adapter fairly often and am wondering what the “Wide Conversion” option in the menu actually does. I have not noticed a difference if it is on or off. Thanks.

    It’s supposed to reduce chromatic aberrations (the colours separating out) with the wide angle attached. It acts sort of like an internal LUT or ‘Look Up Table’ just like the big boys. Wide angle lenses are more predisposed to C/A than regular lenses.
