How do they do that in TV in cars where the presenter is not sat so close to the lens as in the example below.

This is a G7 14-44 stocklens but for smaller spaces it really is not wide enough. Is there a stabilised fixed option lens that would work? Or would you just use a GO PRO in that instance and have the horrible picture it delivers?

How would you do it?

You can skip in on this to see the example.

You can lots of 12mm lenses on the wide area.

12-32 12-50 12-60 on the cheaper end

I have a cheap 8mm, but that is not a easy to use option.
