Combining an exceptionally wide angle of view with the ability to correct perspective distortion, the Laowa 20mm f/4 Zero-D Shift from Venus Optics is an ideal lens for architecture and interior photography. Available here in Sony E mount, the lens's wide 94.4° angle of view is complemented by an impressive shift range of +/- 11mm to compensate for unwanted converging lines and keystone distortion. Furthermore, as a member of the Zero-D lens series, this lens also renders scenes with a high degree of accuracy and very low distortion.
In terms of optics, two aspherical elements and three extra-low dispersion elements are present, reducing both spherical and chromatic aberrations for high sharpness and clarity. A "frog eye" hydrophobic coating also protects the front element of the lens from water droplets and moisture. The lens uses a manual focus design to work with subjects as close as 25cm and features a fourteen-blade aperture diaphragm to produce smooth, circular bokeh as well as specular highlights when stopped down and when photographing point light sources.
Ultra wide-angle lens designed for Sony E full-frame cameras, but can also be used with APS-C models where it provides an equivalent focal length of 32mm.
As a member of the Zero-D series, this lens features an optical design that renders subjects with minimal distortion to suit architectural, interior and landscape applications.
The built-in +/- 11mm shift adjustment helps correct perspective distortion and eliminate keystone distortion.
The large image circle easily covers full-frame sensors without any vignetting. Additionally, this lens can also be adapted to certain medium format mirrorless cameras, where a shift of +/- 8mm is available.
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.
The manual focus design and a minimum focusing distance of 25cm are suited for working with close-up subjects.
The fourteen-blade aperture diaphragm creates smooth, circular bokeh as well as specular highlights when stopped down and when photographing point light sources.
The 360° rotating lens hood prevents unwanted flare and washed-out images and allows you to adjust the angle of the hood to avoid blocking the image during extreme shifts in composition.
The "frog eye" hydrophobic coating protects the front element of the lens from water droplets and moisture.
Compatible with the optional shift lens bracket for a more balanced mounting and to better enable use of the lens for shift panoramic shooting without parallax error.
