The Laowa 15mm f/4.5 Zero-D Shift Lens - CANON RF is an ultra wide-angle perspective shift control lens with excellent optics, full frame lens and minimal distortion (close to zero). This is a variant of the Canon RF mount, fitting for Canon RF Mirrorless Cameras.
For Full Frame cameras, the Laowa 15mm f/4.5 Zero-D Shift lens is actually the World's Widest Shift lens. The change rate is ±11mm. For architectural and interior photography, the lens is fine. The sky-high buildings can easily be seen in a corrected view. The angle of view is 110 degrees, and the sensor creates an enormous 65 mm diameter image circle. The broader viewpoint provides photographers with a lot of versatility to capture architecture and interior shots anytime space is limited.
The gigantic picture circle means that medium-format cameras (e.g. Fujifilm GFX / Hasselblad X1D) can be used with the Laowa 15mm f/4.5 Zero-D Shift lens. The overall possible vertical change for full-frame cameras is ±11 mm for full-frame and ±8 mm for medium-format cameras. Currently, this is also the world's widest lens covering the Fujifilm GFX sensor with minimum vignetting up to +/-8 mm change and just slight vignetting observed up to +/-11 mm from 9 mm onwards.
A member of the Laowa Zero-D series, the Laowa 15mm f/4.5 Zero-D Shift lens provides very low optical distortion levels for excellent performance, ensuring that all the straight lines in the image are faithfully preserved and replicated without complicated software correction.
Zero-D Shift 15mm f/4.5 features excellent image quality, with optical design consisting of 17 components in 11 groups of 2 aspherical elements. A new lens coating has also been introduced and a huge improvement in the regulation of chromatic aberration, flaring and ghosting has been achieved.
Together with the Ultra Wide Angle perspective, an extremely close focusing distance of 20 cm allows imaginative close-up images to be made. 15mm f/4.5 The ultra-wide shift lens is Zero-D Shift. The 5-bladed aperture provides a spectacular 10-point Sunstar rendering of sources of pin point light, perfect for photography of night and city scape.
By rotating the shift mechanism, the special rotation feature allows photographers to fully alter the shift direction. You can rotate the mechanism 360 degrees. To support photographers aim at every angle, including both landscape and portrait orientation, the lens clicks every 15°.
Optional Collar for Lens (supplied separately)
For lens support, an optional lens collar adapter is available, specially built for the 15mm f/4.5 Zero-D Change. It is suitable for panorama photography and prevents errors in parallax.
