Laowa 9mm f/5.6 FF RL Lens for Sony E

The Sony E-mount Laowa 9mm f/5.6 FF RL, produced by Venus Optics, is distinguished by its exceptionally wide field of view and rectilinear rendering. This prime lens provides a uniquely expansive perspective, making it particularly suitable for capturing interior spaces, architectural designs, natural scenes, and landscapes. With an impressive 135° angle of view, it features a sophisticated optical design that incorporates low dispersion, aspherical, and high refractive index elements to effectively manage various aberrations and distortions, resulting in superior sharpness, clarity, and color fidelity. The lens is designed for manual focus and allows for close-up work with subjects as near as 4.7 inches. Its integrated petal-shaped hood serves to minimize stray light, thereby reducing the risk of lens flare. Furthermore, the lens is notably compact, rendering it an excellent choice for both casual and travel photography.

• Ultra-wide-angle lens is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras but can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 13.5mm equivalent focal length.
  
  
• Two extra-low dispersion elements are used to reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce high clarity and color accuracy.
  
  
• Two aspherical elements and one ultra-high refractive index glass element help to control distortion and spherical aberrations for improved sharpness and accurate rendering.
  
  
• Impressively wide 135° angle of view pairs with a rectilinear design, which renders subjects with minimal distortion in order to suit landscape and architectural applications.
  
  
• Manual focus operation permits working with subjects as close as 4.7" away and a focusing tab is featured for easier handling and control.
  
  
• Built-in petal-shaped lens hood helps to prevent stray light from causing lens flare and also offers some physical protection to the lens's front element.
  
  
• Five-blade diaphragm produces distinct 10-point sun stars and specular highlights when stopped-down and photographing point light sources.
