Laowa 12mm f/2.8 Zero-D (Silver)
An ultra-wide-angle prime lens with a rectilinear optical design, the silver Laowa 12mm f/2.8 Zero-D with Nikon F mount from Venus Optics is specially designed to minimise distortion, offering clear and accurate representations of landscapes and architectural subjects. The optical construction also incorporates a pair of aspherical elements and three extra-low dispersion elements to control spherical and chromatic aberrations, thereby improving sharpness and reducing colour fringing. A Frog Eye coating has also been applied to repel dust and moisture from the front element of the lens, making it easier to work in challenging environmental conditions. Complementing the optical attributes, this lens also features precise manual focus as well as a floating optical system to maintain accurate rendering throughout the focus range, from 7.09" to infinity. Additionally, a petal-shaped lens hood is integrated into the lens design to reduce flare and ghosting when shooting in bright lighting conditions.
Features
- Ultra-wide-angle prime lens designed for Nikon FX-format F-mount DSLRs, this 12mm f/2.8 can also be used with DX models where it offers an equivalent focal length of 18mm.
- The bright maximum aperture of f/2.8 is well suited to low-light work and challenging lighting conditions.
- The rectilinear design renders subjects with minimal distortion, making it suitable for landscape and architectural applications.
- Three extra-low dispersion elements reduce chromatic aberrations and colour fringing for improved clarity and colour neutrality. Two aspherical elements are also present to limit spherical aberrations and improve sharpness.
- A Frog Eye coating has been applied to repel dust and moisture, offering additional protection when working in adverse weather conditions.
- The manual focus design uses a floating optical system to maintain performance throughout the focus range, from 7.09" to infinity.
- The integrated petal-shaped lens hood shields the lens from stray light to reduce flare and ghosting, whilst also protecting the front elements from accidental impacts.
