The technical details behind this lens

Laowa 9mm f/5.6 FF RL W-Dreamer Lens - Nikon Z features a wide field of view and two extra-low dispersion elements. Distinguished by its extremely wide field of view and rectilinear rendering, the Laowa 9mm f/5.6 FF RL W-Dreamer Lens - Nikon Z, is a prime lens delivering a uniquely wide perspective that is well-suited for architecture, interior, nature, and landscape subjects. The lens has a manual focus design and allows working with subjects as close as 12cm away and its built-in petal-shaped hood helps to block stray light from causing unwanted lens flare. The lens is also distinguished by its especially compact size, which makes it ideal for walk-around and travel applications. The immense 135° angle of view is complemented by an advanced optical design that uses low dispersion, aspherical, and high refractive index elements to control a variety of aberrations and distortion to achieve high sharpness, clarity, and color accuracy.

Great Optical Performance

The ultra-wide-angle lens is designed for FX-format Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras but can also be used with DX 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. The five-blade diaphragm produces distinct 10-point sun stars and specular highlights when stopped-down and photographing point light sources. The two aspherical elements and one ultra-high refractive index glass elements help to control distortion and spherical aberrations for improved sharpness and accurate rendering.

Great Features

The outstanding wide 135° angle of view pairs with a rectilinear design, which renders subjects with minimal distortion in order to suit the landscape and architectural applications.
