2. Venus Optic Laowa 15mm f/4.0 Wide Angle Macro Sony FE
Wide-angle lens for Sony FE. Maximum focal length: 15 mm. Minimum focusing distance: 12 cm. Image sensor standard: Full-frame, APS-C. Filter diameter: 77 mm. The Laowa 15mm f/4.0 Wide Macro is a wide-angle lens designed for Sony FE cameras. With a minimum focusing distance of just 12 cm, you can also take close-up shots. Thanks to its large angle of view of 110° on full-frame and 85° on APS-C, you can include more of the background. With a maximum focal length of 15 mm, the Laowa 15mm f/4.0 Wide Macro allows for macro photography from various perspectives in sharp image quality. The lens construction consists of twelve elements in nine groups, including three high-refractive elements and one extra-low dispersion element, ensuring you always benefit from the highest image quality with minimal chromatic aberration. At small focal lengths, there is a risk of converging lines. To avoid this, the lens is equipped with an additional shift function. The wide-angle lens features an expanded field of view that surpasses that of the human eye. It differs from standard lenses due to its shorter focal length. This shorter focal length increases the field of view, making subjects appear smaller and allowing more to be captured in the photo. Additionally, the wide-angle lens creates a noticeable effect of spatial depth—objects in the distance appear further away, giving your images a striking sense of depth.

3. Venus Optic Fixed focal length Laowa 85 mm f/5.6 2X APO - Nikon Z
The Laowa 85 mm f/5.6 2X APO macro lens from Venus Optics is a highly advanced lens specifically designed for mirrorless Nikon Z cameras.

4. Venus Optic Laowa 15mm f/2 Zero-D Canon RF
At f/2.0, the Laowa 15mm f/2 Zero-D is one of the fastest and most distortion-free super wide-angle lenses on the market for Canon R full-frame cameras. The optical construction of the 570g lightweight and 9cm long lens consists of 12 elements in 9 groups, including 2 aspherical elements and 3 elements with extra low dispersion. The patented optical design successfully minimises distortion and chromatic aberration while delivering outstanding optical performance right into the corners of the image. The ultra-wide and fast lenses on the market are normally very large and usually have a dome-shaped front lens. This is particularly problematic for landscape photographers who often use filters. Venus Optics has also responded to their needs and managed to develop a lens with a flat front element that allows a 72mm filter thread. This means that normal 72mm screw-in filters can be used. Thanks to the super-short focusing distance of 15cm, this lens also offers photographers the opportunity to take sharp pictures of close-up objects and, thanks to the large f/2.0 aperture, to create wide-angle shots with beautiful bokeh.

5. Venus Optic Fixed Focal Length Laowa 10mm T2.1 Zero-D MFT Cine Lens - MFT

With a focal length of 10 mm, this lens offers an impressive perspective that is ideal for landscape, architecture, and interior shots. The Zero-D technology minimizes distortion, allowing images to be captured with high detail and clarity. The lens is constructed with 11 elements in 7 groups, resulting in excellent image quality. Manual focus allows for precise control, while the maximum aperture of T2.1 ensures good performance in low light conditions. Weighing only 150 grams, it is also lightweight and compact, making it a practical choice for filmmakers and photographers who prioritize mobility.
- Zero-D technology to minimize distortion
- Maximum aperture of T2.1 for better performance in low light

6. Venus Optic Laowa 6mm f/2.0 Zero-D MFT - MFT
The Laowa 6mm f/2 Zero-D MFT is an ultra-wide-angle, compact MFT lens that is suitable for gimbals, handhelds, FPV drones, and more. The lens weighs 188 g and features a standard 58mm filter thread. With a wide field of view of 121.9°, you can effortlessly capture any environment. The Zero-D feature makes this lens ideal for landscapes and buildings. With a minimum focusing distance of 9 cm, photographers can get very close to their subjects. The low aperture of f/2 enhances the lens's flexibility for low-light shooting, and the automatic aperture simplifies the process.

7. Venus Optic Laowa 9mm f/2.8 Zero-D MFT
The 9 mm f/2.8 ZERO-D ultra-wide-angle lens is currently the most extreme wide-angle lens with a brightness of 2.8 for APS-C cameras. With a field of view of 113°, it offers photographers truly exceptional perspectives.
With a length of 60 mm and a diameter of just 53 mm, it is ultra-compact and, weighing only 215 grams, extremely lightweight. This makes it the ideal companion for all mirrorless system cameras. It fits into any camera bag and even feels comfortable in your pocket.
Thanks to the small front lens, all standard screw-in filters with a diameter of just 49 mm can be used without vignetting. Two aspherical lenses and three lenses with extremely low dispersion minimize both chromatic aberration and optical distortions to an absolute minimum. Additionally, this design ensures excellent sharpness all the way to the corners of the image.

8. Venus Optic Laowa 105mm f/2 STF Canon
The LAOWA 105mm f/2 (T3.2) STF lens is a highly sharp portrait lens with beautiful bokeh. STF stands for Smooth Trans Focus. In addition to the aperture with 14 blades, which creates a circular aperture opening, the lens features a second aperture element with 8 blades. This extraordinary optical design causes the distracting diffraction rings around the image points to disappear. As a result, soft transitions in the out-of-focus areas of the lens are created. A separate ring allows for the variation of this naturally appearing and beautiful diffuse blur (bokeh) independently from the aperture setting. This also makes the transition from the sharp to the out-of-focus area smoother. The larger the aperture, the stronger this effect becomes.
The high-quality metal housing contains 11 elements in 8 groups, including 1 HFR (high refractive) element, 3 LD (low dispersion) elements, and 1 APD (apodization) element. This optical design results in photos with extremely high sharpness and minimal chromatic aberration. Aperture and focus adjustments are made manually.

9. Venus Optic Laowa 60mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro Pentax
World’s first 2:1 macro lens with infinity focus.
Featuring a magnification range from 0.1x to 2x, this lens is ideally suited for rapidly changing macro photography scenarios without using any extension tube. The wide magnification range is very useful for shooting macro objects, such as insects, of different sizes. The lens is also designed for normal shooting purposes with a 60mm focal length, providing an all-in-one solution for normal portrait shooting as well as ultra-macro photography.
The versatile design offered by this manual focus, manual aperture lens lets you work with close-up subjects and then quickly switch to portraits or distant subjects without attaching extension tubes. It is ideally suited for rapidly changing shooting situations. Unlike other macro lenses that focus to 1:1, the LAOWA 60mm f/2.8 2X Ultra-Macro can produce images from infinity to 2 times lifesize.
This patented optical powerhouse has 9 elements in 7 groups to provide impressive image quality and color accuracy. The optical system consists of 2 major moving lens groups to control barrel distortion. This lens design utilizes the lens barrel to shade the front lens element when focusing on distant subjects. Fourteen aperture blades form a close-to-circular aperture, capable of creating a creamy shallow depth of field.
The lens barrel is made of metal for maximum strength and durability. A complimentary lens pouch and filter are included in the package. Canon EF, Nikon F, Sony Alpha, and Pentax K mounts are available. While it is designed for use on APS-C formats, this lens can also be used with full-frame cameras. Note: on full-frame cameras, there will be slight vignetting while shooting at infinity. For macro shooting, there is no vignetting.
