How it's used
Commonly appears in social media contexts to describe the framing of photos or videos, such as the popular trend of boyfriend perspective. Beyond literal sight, it is frequently used metaphorically to encourage someone to consider an alternative viewpoint or opinion. It carries a slightly more formal or technical tone compared to everyday words like 角度.

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with 角度, which is a more general term for angle or point of view. While 視角 specifically implies a visual or observational frame, 角度 is much broader and can be used for abstract arguments or physical corners.
