Laowa 12 mm f/2.8 Zero-D (black)
The Laowa 12 mm f/2.8 Zero-D (Sony A, black) lens, offering the widest angle of view (122°) ever built into an f/2.8 lens, is an ideal lens for different types of photography. Landscape, architecture, interior, travel and especially astrophotography.
The lens is also the lightest and most compact in its class and is perfectly suited to everyday shooting. It also features virtually zero optical distortion, allowing photographers to take landscape/architectural shots whilst maintaining straight lines.
A hydrophobic and dust-resistant "Frog Eye Coating" is applied to the front element of the lens. Users can use CPL / ND filters by adding an optional Laowa 100 mm filter holder system.

Features
- Ultra wide-angle lens designed for Sony A full-frame mirrorless cameras, this 12 mm f/2.8 can also be used with APS-C models where it provides an equivalent focal length of 18 mm.
- A bright maximum aperture of f/2.8 is well suited for working in low-light and challenging lighting conditions.
- The rectilinear design reproduces subjects with minimal distortion to suit landscape and architecture applications.
- Three extra-low dispersion elements reduce chromatic aberrations and colour fringing for greater 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 for enhanced protection when working in difficult conditions.
- The manual focus design uses a floating optical system to maintain performance across the entire focusing range from 18 cm to infinity.
- The built-in petal-shaped lens hood protects the lens from stray light to reduce flare and ghosting, and also protects the front elements from accidental impacts.
