Laowa 9mm f/5.6 FF RL (Black)
Characterised by its extremely wide field of view and rectilinear rendering, the Laowa 9mm f/5.6 FF RL black lens for Leica M mount from Venus Optics is a fixed focal length lens offering a unique perspective particularly suited to interior, architectural, nature and landscape subjects. The immense 135° angle of view is complemented by an advanced optical design that uses low-dispersion, aspherical and high-refractive-index elements to control various aberrations and distortions in order to achieve great sharpness, clarity and colour accuracy. The lens has a manual focus design and allows working with subjects as close as 4.7", and its integrated petal-shaped lens hood helps block stray light causing unwanted flare. Furthermore, the lens is also characterised by its particularly compact size, making it ideal for walk-around and travel applications.
Features
- Ultra wide-angle lens designed for rangefinder cameras with Leica M mount.
- Two extra-low dispersion elements are used to reduce colour fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce great clarity and colour accuracy.
- Two aspherical elements and one ultra-high refractive index glass element help control distortion and spherical aberrations for improved sharpness and accurate rendering.
- The impressive 135° angle of view combines with a rectilinear design, which renders subjects with minimal distortion to suit landscape and architecture applications. This ultra-wide field of view will exceed that of a rangefinder camera's viewfinder and an external electronic viewfinder or live view method must be used to achieve precise compositions.
- Coupled to the rangefinder for precise focusing using the camera's viewfinder; despite a minimum focus distance of 4.7", the lens/rangefinder is only coupled for precise focus down to 2.3' and this distance is highlighted on the focus distance scale. To work between 4.7" and 2.3', live view methods must be used for precise focusing.
- The integrated petal-shaped lens hood helps prevent stray light from causing flare and also provides some physical protection to the front element of the lens.
- The five-blade aperture diaphragm produces distinctive 10-pointed stars and specular highlights when stopped down and photographing point light sources.
