Venus Optics
The Laowa 15mm f/2 FE Zero-D Lens for Leica L-mount by Venus Optics is a high-speed, wide-angle prime designed to minimize distortion through a sophisticated optical arrangement. Its bright f/2 maximum aperture is particularly advantageous for astrophotography and low-light shooting, enhancing versatility. With a close focusing distance of 5.9", it enables the creation of distinct shallow depth of field imagery. The optical construction incorporates three extra-low dispersion elements and two aspherical elements to effectively control both chromatic and spherical aberrations, resulting in superior sharpness, clarity, and reduced color fringing. Additionally, a Frog Eye Coating has been applied to the lens's front element to repel dust and moisture, ensuring durability in challenging environments. Furthermore, the manual aperture ring can be de-clicked for smooth and silent aperture adjustments suitable for video applications, while the lens's threaded front accommodates 72mm screw-in filters, enhancing its versatility further. |
FeaturesThe Venus Optics Laowa 15mm f/2 FE Zero-D Lens is an ultra wide-angle prime crafted for full-frame Leica L-mount mirrorless cameras, adaptable for APS-C models to provide a 22.5mm equivalent focal length. Its relatively fast f/2 maximum aperture is ideal for astrophotography and low-light shooting scenarios, while its rectilinear design minimizes distortion for landscape and architectural photography. Featuring three extra-low dispersion elements and two aspherical elements, it effectively reduces chromatic aberrations and color fringing, ensuring enhanced clarity and color accuracy. A Frog Eye Coating repels dust and moisture, bolstering durability in challenging conditions. With a manual focus design enabling a close focusing distance of 5.9" and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:4, it offers versatility in capturing various subjects. The manual aperture ring can be 'de-clicked' for smooth and silent adjustments, suitable for video applications. Equipped with five straight diaphragm blades, it produces crisp 10-point sun-stars when photographing point light sources. Despite its ultra-wide construction, the lens is compatible with 72mm screw-in filters, adding to its functionality and adaptability. |
