Laowa 11mm f/4.5 FF RL Lens for Sony E **OPEN BOX**

The Sony E-mount Laowa 11mm f/4.5 FF RL, produced by Venus Optics, features an exceptionally wide field of view and an elegant design, making it a distinctive wide-angle prime lens with rectilinear characteristics. This lens is particularly well-suited for capturing interiors, architecture, nature, and landscapes. With an impressive 126° angle of view, it benefits from a sophisticated optical configuration that incorporates aspherical high refractive index and low dispersion elements, ensuring well-corrected, sharp, and color-accurate images. Designed for manual focus, this lens allows for close-up work with subjects positioned as near as 7.5 inches, and its integrated petal-shaped hood effectively minimizes stray light, reducing the risk of unwanted lens flare.

• Ultra-wide prime is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras but can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 16.5mm equivalent focal length.
• Two aspherical elements and one ultra-high refractive index glass element 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.
• Impressively wide 126° angle of view pairs with a rectilinear design, which renders subjects with minimal distortion in order to suit landscape and architectural applications.
• Manual focusing design is benefitted by an integrated focusing tab for intuitive handling and a minimum focusing distance of 7.5″ suits working with close-up subjects.
• 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.
• Front of the lens is threaded to accept optional 62mm filters. The lens is also compatible with an optional, dedicated 100mm filter holder.
• Five-blade diaphragm produces distinct 10-point sun stars and specular highlights when stopped-down and photographing point light sources.
