Before now, wide-angle macro required the use of extension tubes and other workarounds, but now the Laowa 15mm Macro offers true 1:1 magnification without the hassle. The ultra-wide perspective on full-frame cameras allows users to get exceptionally close to their subjects with a minimum focus distance of just 4.7\", and have them fill the frame, while still capturing the background for more informative scenes. Internal focusing further assists by not disturbing your subject, even when you reach the 0.2\" minimum working distance.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eOptically, it is designed to minimise distortion that plagues wide-angle lenses with the use of an advanced 12 element in 9 group construction with one extra-low dispersion and three high-refractive elements. A multi-layer low-reflective coating further improved image quality by reducing the appearance of flare and ghosting. Also, when used on APS-C cameras, or in crop modes, the lens offers +\/- 6mm of vertical shift which can help correct for perspective when shooting objects such as buildings.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eFull manual operation is required with this lens through the use of a physical aperture ring with a range of f\/4 to f\/32 and a large focusing ring. A flat front element provides room for a 77mm front filter thread for using a selection of specialised filters to enhance your scene. Additionally, it has a near circular 14-blade diaphragm for smooth out of focus elements and comes with a lens hood.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eUltra-wide 110° angle of view on full-frame cameras.\u003cbr\u003e The wide-angle lens offers a 35mm equivalent focal length of 22.5mm with an 85° angle of view when used on APS-C cameras bodies or in crop modes.\u003cbr\u003e Wide aperture range of f\/4 to f\/32.\u003cbr\u003e Lens construction features 12 elements in 9 groups with 3 high-refractive elements and on extra-low dispersion element.\u003cbr\u003e Minimum focus distance of 4.7\" with a minimum working distance of just 0.2\".\u003cbr\u003e Manual focus and aperture control.\u003cbr\u003e When used with APS-C cameras, the Laowa 15mm Macro can utilise +\/-6 mm of vertical shift to help correct perspective.\u003cbr\u003e True 1:1 magnification allows photographers to capture life-sized images of their subjects while still providing infinity focus for use as a standard wide-angle lens.\u003cbr\u003e Near-circular 14-blade aperture diaphragm provides smooth out-of-focus elements.\u003cbr\u003e Accepts 77mm threaded filters.\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"LAOWA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44575687737621,"sku":"VEN1540FE","price":949.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/0252\/0085\/products\/ven1540fe_0_3.jpg?v=1680184835","url":"https:\/\/www.cameraelectronic.live\/products\/laowa-15mm-f-4-macro-lens-for-sony-e","provider":"Camera Electronic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
