How can I film a video in widescreen with my sony cybershot dsc-w100?

Question

I have that camera, and for the filming option, it doesn't show an option to shoot widescreen. Like, no bars at the top. am I overlooking something, or is that feature not included? and is there an editing program that can change from full screen to widescreen?

Answer 1

Most still cameras do not shoot in widescreen. In fact, I have never heard of a still camera that shoots in widescreen. If you want the letterbox effect on your videos, I recommend Sony Vegas Movie Studio. There's a free trial version on their website. There's a bit of a learning curve, but there are plenty of tutorials on the internet.
