Description
The Laowa 12-24mm f/5.6 Zoom is an ultra-wide zoom lens designed for Canon RF, Nikon Z, Sony E and Leica M mount mirrorless cameras.
With an angle of view from 84° to 121°, the lens can be very useful for multiple scenarios. It also has a fixed f/5.6 maximum aperture throughout the whole zoom range. The lens is relatively lightweight in its class weighing 497g and measuring 70mm in diameter and 84mm long. The lens is also compatible with 77mm filters (With the lens hood) and has a 15cm close-focusing distance. This 12-24mm is designed with a 5-bladed aperture which could render appealing 10-point Sunstar.
The lens has been coated with the water & dust repelling “Frog-Eye” Coating (FEC). It gives your lens an extra layer of protection compared to traditional coatings
