  • Type

    Wide Angle

    Wide-angle lenses with optics that allow for fitting many elements within the frame with relatively little distortion. Their focal distance is usually 24-35mm for full-frame, 15-25mm for crop frame, and 50-70mm for medium format. They are commonly used in street photography but also in indoor spaces where there is limited distance from the subject. The perspective of wide-angle lenses makes things appear farther apart than they actually are.

  • Mount

    The type of mount that the camera body must have in order for the lens to be fully functional when attached to it.

    2. Some lenses can be used with older mounts from the same manufacturer, sacrificing certain functions (e.g. autofocus), or even with mounts from other manufacturers using an adapter.

  • Item

    Lenses with variable optical (zoom) that remain equally bright (same maximum aperture value) throughout the entire focal distance range they offer. Usually significantly more expensive than their variable aperture counterparts.

    Fixed Focal Length

    Lenses with fixed optics are usually of higher quality than a corresponding zoom lens at the same focal distance. They are also called "fixed" or "prime" lenses.

  • Sensor Type

    Crop Frame

    Lenses designed for use on cameras with a crop frame sensor (smaller frame).

  • Maximum Aperture (f)

    Opening the diaphragm determines the amount of light received by the camera and affects the depth of field.
    2. The most open aperture of a lens is called the maximum. The more open the aperture (smaller f-number), the shallower the depth of field.

Description

Description

The Laowa 12mm f/2.8 Zero-D manual lens by Venus Optics offers an exceptionally wide field of view for Nikon F-mount camera bodies. It combines an impressive 122-degree angle of coverage with a consistently bright maximum aperture. It is an excellent choice for architectural photography, landscapes, astrophotography, and filming with gimbals. Its advanced construction eliminates the bending of straight lines, preserving the scene’s geometry. The protective coating on the front elements effectively repels water and dust.

Zero Distortion Technology & 122° Wide Angle

Offering an exceptionally wide 121.96° (122°) angle of view, the lens captures striking compositions with a unique perspective. Its Zero Distortion design ensures straight lines remain true across the entire frame, eliminating the need for digital distortion correction. The bright maximum aperture of f/2.8 makes it easier to shoot the night sky and in low-light conditions, while the 7-blade aperture stops down to f/22.

Optical Construction & Focusing from 18 cm

The optical design consists of 16 elements in 10 groups, delivering high sharpness and detail across the entire sensor surface. The manual focus mechanism ensures precise control, with a minimum focusing distance of just 18 cm and a maximum magnification of 0.2x. This feature allows you to create dynamic compositions in which the main subject stands out in the foreground against a richly detailed background.

Frog Eye Coating & Durable 609g Body

The front elements feature a special Frog Eye hydrophobic coating that effectively repels water droplets, moisture, and dust particles. With compact dimensions of 74.8 x 82.8 mm and a weight of 609 g, the lens offers excellent balance for both handheld photography and electronic gimbal stabilization systems. The sturdy Nikon F metal mount ensures long-lasting durability, while caps and a lens hood are included.

The diameter that a filter must have to be applied on the lens without the use of an adapter.
Focal Length
12 mm

Focal Length

It is the distance that the light rays need to travel to reach the focal point, that is, the lens sensor.
The smaller the focal distance, the larger the angle of view for the photograph and therefore the lens can capture more of what is in front of us.
