Building on the legacy of the original Laowa 12mm lens, the Lite version features a redesigned optical structure optimized for mirrorless systems. Weighing only 377g (Sony E version), it is highly portable while offering the renowned Laowa Zero-D design, ensuring nearly zero distortion straight from the camera without the need for digital correction.
With a bright f/2.8 aperture, this lens excels in low light and provides an unusually shallow depth of field for wide-angle lenses. The minimum focusing distance is just 14cm, allowing for creative close-up perspectives, while the 5-blade diaphragm creates dramatic 10-point sun stars for detailed light rendering in landscape shots. The 16-element, 9-group optical design delivers exceptional sharpness and significantly improved edge clarity compared to its predecessor.
A notable convenience is the built-in 72mm filter thread, uncommon for such a wide lens, enabling direct use of ND and CPL filters without bulky adapters.
The Laowa 12mm f/2.8 Lite Zero-D FF lens combines a unique ultra-wide field of view, portability, and optical sophistication, making it an excellent tool for demanding creatives on the go.
