wide angle? yes. you need to buy a lens adapter, and then a wide angle lens with corresponding thread size to that adapter.

I found some examples on this page, but can you make actual 16:9 format with those lenses? it seems the pic captures a wider view, but its still in 4:3??

No, it only shoots 4:3 aspect ratio; you can always crop it in post-processing to 16:9 if you really want that aspect ratio.

Easiest solution is to just crop your photo to the aspect ratio you desire.
