Main features of the Laowa 11mm f/4.5 FF RL lens
extremely wide viewing angle of 126°
high image quality with minimized distortion and chromatic aberration
incredibly light (254g) and compact (6.35 x 5.8cm)
convenient Focus Tab tab, allowing precise control of focus ring position
thread for 62mm diameter photographic filters
brilliant 10-point stars
extremely wide angle of view
An extraordinary 126° angle of view lets you capture a huge space in a photo. Breathtaking cityscapes and beautiful landscapes are waiting for you.
Uncompromised image quality
The heart of the lens consists of 14 optical elements, arranged in 10 groups. Two aspherical lenses and two extra-low dispersion glasses reduce chromatic aberration and distortion to a minimum. The image generated by the lens is full of detail, colour and contrast.
Extremely close encounter
The lens features an extremely short focusing distance of 19cm (measured from the subject to the camera sensor). This creates unconventional opportunities in macro photography for creating multi-plane frames with exceptional perspective.
Perfect stars
When you close the 5-blade aperture, you get the effect of aesthetically pleasing and well-defined 10-point “stars”. These appear in the photo in place of the sun or other light sources such as street lamps, car headlights or Christmas tree lights.
Small and lightweight lens
The 11mm f/4.5 was designed with landscape photographers and travellers in mind. Its design does not restrict mobility and is extremely strong yet lightweight and small. This compact lens measures less than 6.4cm and weighs just 254g
Two ways to filter
Despite its ultra-wide focal length, the lens has a traditional 62mm wide circular filter thread. This is a very practical and convenient solution.
A second way to mount the 100mm wide rectangular filters is with a special magnetic holder.
