Product Information

Full details

The Laowa 15mm f2 Zero-D Lens is designed for landscape and astro photographers who need an ultra-wide, rectilinear field of view without the barrel distortion common in wide-angle lenses. It offers a bright f/2 aperture for low-light performance and a compact, lightweight build, though it requires manual focus adjustment as it lacks autofocus capabilities.

FAQs

Is this lens autofocus compatible?

No, this is a fully manual focus lens.

Can I use standard filters with this lens?

Yes, it features a 72mm filter thread on the front for easy attachment of circular filters.

Does this lens communicate with the camera to save EXIF data?

No, as this is a fully manual lens, it does not send focal length or aperture information to the camera.

Is this lens suitable for video?

Yes, the aperture ring can be set to click-less mode, which allows for smooth, stepless iris control while recording.

What is the minimum focusing distance?

The lens can focus as close as 15cm from the subject.

Troubleshooting

Camera does not fire when pressing the shutter button.

Enable the 'Shoot without lens' or 'Release shutter without lens' setting in your camera's custom menu.

Images appear blurry even when focus is set to infinity.

Ensure the focus ring is precisely set using the camera's focus peaking feature, as depth of field changes rapidly at f/2.

Pros and Cons

  • Compact and lightweight for its focal length
  • Fast f/2 aperture is excellent for astrophotography
  • Supports standard 72mm circular filters

  • Requires manual aperture control on the lens barrel

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Laowa 15mm f2 is designed specifically for L-mount full-frame cameras. To mount the lens, align the white indicator on the lens with the corresponding mark on your camera body and twist until it clicks.

Since this is a fully manual lens, you must ensure your camera is set to 'Shoot without lens' in the internal menu settings to allow the shutter to fire. For cleaning, use a high-quality microfiber cloth for the front element. Always store the lens in a cool, dry place with both the front and rear caps secured to prevent dust accumulation on the glass elements.
