Description

The Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 FF Zoom Fisheye is a wide angle zoom lens from Laowa with a Sony E mount and f/2.8 aperture. Weighs 650g. Suited to landscape, travel and vlogging

Key Features

  • Full-frame zoom lens
  • Bright, unvarying f/2.8 aperture
  • Ultra-wide 180° field of view
  • Close minimum focusing distance of 16cm (6.3 inches)

Field of view

The lens delivers a 180° angle of view at its 8mm focal length on a full-frame camera.

Fisheye effect

At 8mm the lens produces a circular fisheye effect with pronounced curvature. At 15mm it fills the full-frame sensor with a rectangular fisheye image.

Uses include expansive landscapes, compact cities, action sports and 360° panoramas.

Aperture and low light

The f/2.8 aperture stays constant throughout the 8-15mm zoom range. It allows a shallow depth of field, so subjects stand out with a pleasing background blur, and it gives outstanding low-light performance.

Close focusing

The minimum focusing distance is 16cm, with a maximum magnification of 0.23x. That suits close-up shots at close range.

Construction and use

The lens has 13 elements in 9 groups and 9 aperture blades. The lens is remarkably compact.

Made by Venus Optics, it suits vloggers, drone-based creators and astrophotography.
