Eccentric wide angle with 1:1 macro capability. The lens is supposed to be used in conjunction with Canon and Nikon full-frame SLR cameras. It weighs down the weight of the set of photographic equipment by 410 g and protrudes forward from the "carcass" of the camera by about 84 mm. In this case, you can focus almost point-blank from the front lens — in manual mode, Laowa 15mm f / 4.0 Macro is focused from a distance of 0.4 cm (or 12 cm from the plane of the matrix in a more familiar measurement scale).

Autofocus systems on board the width is not provided. In the optical scheme of the lens there are 12 elements in 9 groups. Some of the lenses are multi-coated to reduce glare and reflections. Another trump card up the sleeve of the model is the 14-blade diaphragm design. The circles on the bokeh should be perfectly round. The maximum macro aperture is f/4. A petal hood is installed near the front lens of the model. Also, on the “nose” of the lens, you can hook filters with a diameter of 77 mm.

Venus - Laowa 15mm f/4 1:1 Macro Lens with Shift for Sony FE VEN1540SFE

A groundbreaking innovation in the world of photography, the Venus Laowa 15mm f/4 Wide-Angled 1:1 Macro Lens is a game-change... morer for both professional and amateur photographers. This lens is the first of its kind to offer an ultra-wide angle of view combined with a 1:1 Macro ability, making it a unique addition to the market. Designed to redefine the concept of "Wide Angle Macro Photography," this lens eliminates the need for an extension tube, offering photographers a fresh perspective on their subjects. Traditional macro lenses often restrict users to close-up shots, limiting the ability to capture the subject's environment. The Laowa 15mm f/4 1:1 Macro lens, however, opens up a new world of possibilities, allowing the capture of intricate foreground details while still showcasing the subject's habitat or environment. With an impressive ultra-wide angle of view of 110 degrees and 1:1 maximum magnification, this lens enables photographers to focus incredibly close to the subject. This feature allows the foreground to dominate the photo, while the wide-angle view provides context about the subject's surroundings, creating a captivating and informative image. Beyond its macro capabilities, the Laowa 15mm f/4 1:1 Macro lens also excels as an ultra-wide angle lens for cameras with full-frame sensors. It includes a shift mechanism at the rear end of the lens, offering a maximum adjustment of +/- 6mm. This feature is particularly beneficial for landscape and architecture photography, aiding in distortion correction. The lens construction comprises 12 elements in 9 groups, including 3 pieces of High Refractive elements and 1 piece of Extra-low dispersion elements. This design ensures crystal clear sharpness, both in the center and at the edge of your images. Barrel Distortion has been meticulously controlled to deliver high-quality results. The lens features 14 pieces of aperture blades that form a close-to-circular aperture, capable of creating a creamy shallow depth of view. The lens enclosure is crafted from durable metal, ensuring longevity and robustness. The Venus Laowa 15mm f/4 Wide-Angled 1:1 Macro Lens is available in Canon EF, Nikon F, Sony A, Sony FE, and Pentax K mounts, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of photographers.
