Camera House Laowa 14mm f/4 FF RL Zero-D Lens - Leica M (Silver)
The technical details behind this lens The Laowa 14mm f/4 FF RL Zero-D Lens - Leica M (Silver) features excellent optical performance and compact design. The broad 114° angle of view is aided by an advanced optical design, which includes aspherical, high refractive index, and low dispersion elements, to realize well-corrected, sharp, and color-accurate imagery. The Laowa lens has a manual focus design and permits working with subjects as close as 27cm away and its built-in petal-shaped hood helps to block stray light from causing unwanted lens flare. It is a sleek prime lens with distinctly low distortion and rectilinear rendering to suit architecture, interior, nature, astrophotography, and landscape applications. Please Note: This product listing is for the silver version of this lens. Alternative colour is shown. Great Optical Performance The ultra-wide prime is designed for Leica M-mount rangefinder cameras. Featuring the two aspherical elements and one ultra-high refractive index glass elements help to control distortion and spherical aberrations for improved sharpness and accurate rendering. Three extra-low dispersion elements are used to reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce high clarity and color accuracy. The wide 114° angle of view pairs with a rectilinear design, which renders subjects with minimal distortion in order to suit the landscape and architectural applications. This ultra-wide field of view will exceed that of a rangefinder camera's viewfinder; an external electronic viewfinder or live view method should be used for making accurate compositions. Rangefinder-coupled for accurate focusing using the camera's viewfinder; despite the lens having a minimum focusing distance of 27 cm, the lens/rangefinder is only coupled for accurate focusing to 0.70 m and this distance is highlighted on the focusing distance scale. For working between 27 cm and 0.70 m, live view methods should be used for accurate focusing. The five-blade diaphragm produces distinct 10-point sun stars and specular highlights when stopped-down and photographing point light sources. Remarkable Features The built-in petal-shaped lens hood helps to prevent stray light from causing lens flare and provides some physical protection to the lens's front element. The front of the lens is threaded to accept optional 52mm filters. The lens is also compatible with an optional, dedicated 100mm filter holder.
