Laowa 11mm f/4.5 FF RL for Full-Frame Mirrorless cameras
Anhui China, Aug 28, 2020 – Venus Optics, the manufacturer specialized in making unique camera lenses, introduced the Laowa 11mm f/4.5 FF RL lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras. The small but potent lens features an ultra-wide 126° AoV with only 254g (8.9 oz.). It is designed with a 62mm filter thread where photographer can use screw-in filters with ease. It is also currently the world’s widest rectilinear lens with a front filter thread for full frame mirrorless cameras.
1) Ultra Wide Angle perspective with 126° angle of view
Featuring a remarkable 126° angle of view (AoV), the new Laowa 11mm f/4.5 FF RL offers
an exaggerated and non-fisheye perspective. It is a perfect tool for landscape, travel and
interior photographers.
2) Built-in 62mm filter thread
Laowa 11mm f/4.5 FF RL is equipped with 62 mm filter thread for screw-in filters. It is a very convenient feature for landscape photographers as filters are one of their most commonly used tools. For photographers who opt to use slide-in filters, the specially designed magnetic filter holder allows them to use their 100mm-wide filters with no vignetting.
3) High quality image with minimum distortion and chromatic aberrations
The 11mm lens is composed of 14 elements in 10 groups which deliver a remarkable image sharpness. Although it is not a Zero-D lens , the 2 aspherical elements and 3 extra-low dispersion elements suppress the distortion and chromatic aberrations to the minimum.
4) Super compact and lightweight
The lens is designed to achieve high mobility, compactness and lightness to give photographers more flexibility in travelling. The tiny lens is only 6.3cm (2.5inch) in height & weight 254g (8.9oz). It is one of the smallest ultra wide angle lens you could find for full frame mirrorless cameras.
5) Extremely close focusing distance
Laowa11mm f/4.5 FF RL features an extremely close focusing distance of 7.4″ / 19cm (from subject to sensor) for photographers to create macro-like shots with the ultra-wide perspective.
6) Stunning 10-point sunstars
Laowa 11mm f/4.5 FF RL is designed with 5-bladed aperture where a clean and appealing 10-point sunstar rendering can be created.
