It is an ultra-wide \u0026amp; ultra-fast prime lens which covers both 35mm full-frame \u0026amp; APS-C sensors. The extreme 110° angle of view and ultra-fast f\/2 aperture allow photographers to create impressive astro-photography shots with ease. It also gives photographers a fast wide angle option for landscape and low-light photography.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eZero Distortion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe Laowa 15mm f\/2 Zero-D is the second member of the Close-to-Zero distortion series from Venus Optics, following the launch of the Laowa 12mm f\/2.8 Zero-D last year. Zero-D lenses are specially designed to remove the optical distortion commonly associated with wide angle lenses. Any straight lines will be retained.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuper Light \u0026amp; Compact\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nDespite the extreme specifications, Laowa has successfully minimized the weight of the lens to only 500 g (~1.1 pounds) and the length to only 82 mm (3.23 in.). This compact, lightweight lens is comprised of 12 elements in 9 groups with 2 aspherical elements and 3 Extra-low dispersion elements. The patented optical design successfully minimizes distortion and chromatic aberrations and delivers superb optical performance from edge to edge.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003e72mm Filter Thread\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nUltra-wide \u0026amp; fast lenses in the market tend to be huge and have a dome-shaped front element. This creates a serious problem for landscape photographers who often require filters for creativity and exposure control. Laowa understood this situation and managed to design a flat front lens element that allows them to attach a 72mm filter onto the lens. Unlike other ultra-wide lenses, there is no need to invest in an expensive, bulky filter holder.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eFocus as Close as 15cm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nPhotographers can take advantage of the super close focusing distance (only 15 cm\/5.9 in. from the sensor) and the f\/2 aperture to create unique wide angle close-up shots with beautiful bokeh.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandy for Videographers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe new Laowa 15mm f\/2 Zero-D is specially designed with an aperture switch that allows users to quickly switch between click-less and clicked apertures. This added feature is extremely useful for videographers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Laowa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47123455017188,"sku":"LA-VE1520SFE","price":510.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/4647\/2676\/files\/VE1520SFE-1_ecc4d93a-5774-4d51-9375-59367ebe3f5f.jpg?v=1764763712","url":"https:\/\/progear-website.myshopify.com\/products\/laowa-15mm-f2-zero-d-lens-sony-fe-mount-black","provider":"Progear-website","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
