Laowa 15mm f/4.5 Zero-D Shift
Combining an exceptionally wide field of view with the ability to correct perspective distortion, the Laowa 15mm f/4.5 Zero-D Shift lens for Canon RF mount from Venus Optics is an ideal lens for architectural and interior applications. The wide 110° angle of view is complemented by an impressive shift range of +/- 11 mm to compensate for unwanted converging lines and keystoning. This shift control is complemented by a 360° rotation mechanism applying movements in different directions to accommodate both horizontal and vertical shooting orientations. Furthermore, as a member of the Zero-D lens series, this 15mm f/4.5 also renders scenes with high accuracy and very low distortion.
In terms of optics, two aspherical elements and three extra-low dispersion elements are present, reducing spherical and chromatic aberrations for high sharpness and clarity. An anti-reflective coating also helps control flare and ghosting for improved contrast and colour rendition. The lens uses a manual focus design to work with subjects as close as 20 cm and features a five-blade aperture to produce distinctive 10-pointed sunstars.

Features
- Ultra wide-angle lens designed for Canon RF mount mirrorless cameras.
- As a member of the Zero-D series, this lens has a rectilinear design that renders subjects with minimal distortion to suit architectural, interior, and landscape applications.
- Built-in shift adjustment of +/- 11 mm helps correct perspective distortion and eliminate keystoning.
- The large 65 mm diameter image circle easily covers full-frame sensors without vignetting.
- Shift control works in conjunction with 360° rotation to apply shift in different directions, making it easy to switch between vertical and horizontal shooting orientations, and the rotation mechanism features clicks every 15° for intuitive handling.
- Two aspherical elements limit spherical aberrations and distortion for improved sharpness and accurate rendering.
- Three extra-low dispersion elements reduce chromatic aberrations and colour fringing for increased clarity and colour neutrality.
- Improved anti-reflective coating eliminates flare and ghosting for better contrast and colour accuracy when shooting in bright lighting conditions.
- Manual focus design and 20 cm minimum focusing distance suited to working with close-up subjects.
- Five-blade aperture produces distinctive 10-pointed sunstars and specular highlights when stopped down and when photographing point light sources.
- Compatible with the optional shift lens bracket for a more balanced mount and to better enable use of the lens for shift-type stitch panoramic photography without parallax error.
