Wide Field of View and Perspective Control
The Nikon F-mount Laowa 15mm f/4.5 Zero-D Shift is perfect for architecture and interior photography. It offers an incredibly wide 110° angle of view, plus an impressive +/- 11mm shift range to correct for converging lines and keystone distortion. Plus, the 360° rotation mechanism allows you to make movements in various directions, whether you're shooting horizontally or vertically. As part of the Zero-D lens series, this 15mm f/4.5 also delivers highly accurate results with minimal distortion.
In terms of optics, two aspherical elements and three extra-low dispersion elements are featured, which reduce both spherical and chromatic aberrations for high sharpness and clarity. An anti-reflective coating also helps to control flare and ghosting for heightened contrast and Colour rendering. The lens uses a manual focus design for working with subjects as close as 20.066 cm away and has a five-blade diaphragm for producing distinct 10-point sun stars.
- The ultra-wide lens is designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount cameras but can also be used with DX models where it provides a 2.25 cm equivalent focal length.
- As part of the Zero-D series, this lens has a rectilinear design that renders subjects with minimal distortion in order to suit architectural, interior, and landscape applications.
- Integrated +/- 11mm of shift adjustment helps to correct perspective distortion and eliminate keystone distortion.
- A large 65mm-diameter image circle easily covers full-frame sensors without any vignetting. Additionally, this lens can also be adapted to medium format mirrorless cameras (44 x 33mm sensor), where up to +/- 8mm of shift is available.
- The shift control works in conjunction with 360° of rotation for applying the shift in various directions, benefitting switching between vertical and horizontal shooting orientations, and the rotation mechanism has click stops at 15° increments for intuitive handling.
- Two aspherical elements limit spherical aberrations and distortion for improved sharpness and accurate rendering.
- Three extra-low dispersion elements reduce chromatic aberrations and Colour fringing for increased clarity and colour neutrality.
- Updated anti-reflective coating suppresses flare and ghosting for improved contrast and colour accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions.
- Manual focusing design and a minimum focusing distance of 20.066 cm suit working with close-up subjects.
- Five-blade diaphragm produces distinct 10-point sun stars and specular highlights when stopped-down and photographing point light sources.
- Compatible with optional Shift Lens Support for more balanced mounting and to better enable using the lens for shift-type stitched panorama shooting without parallax error.
