NEW – 8-15mm f/2.8 FF Zoom Fisheye

Description Fish Out Your Creativity! Ultra-Wide 180° AoV for Jaw-dropping Imagery ©wei wei The Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 FF Zoom Fisheye Lens offers an extra-wide view, delivering a sweeping 180° angle of view at its 8mm focal length on full-frame cameras. This expansive perspective captures vast scenes in a single frame, producing a dramatic circular fisheye effect with pronounced curvature, ideal for immersive landscapes, astrophotography, and 360° panoramas. As the lens zooms to 15mm, the angle of view narrows slightly, filling the full-frame sensor with a rectangular fisheye image that retains a wide, distorted perspective. ©Richard Wong ©Albert Dros 1 Lens, 2 fisheye Effects Zoom in and out while maintaining center focus to create dual fisheye effects.   Excellent Image Quality Constant f/2.8 Fast Aperture The Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 FF Zoom Fisheye Lens boasts a constant f/2.8 aperture throughout its 8-15mm zoom range, providing outstanding low-light performance and creative flexibility. This fast aperture ensures consistent light capture, excelling in challenging conditions like astrophotography, indoor settings, or evening shoots. It allows for a shallow depth of field, enabling photographers to isolate subjects with a pleasing background blur, enhancing the fisheye’s dramatic effect for portraits or action shots. ©wei wei 6.3″/16cm Closest Focusing Distance The Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 FF Zoom Fisheye Lens features a minimum focusing distance of 16cm (6.3”), enabling photographers and videographers to capture subjects at close range with striking visual impact. This close focusing capability enhances the lens’s fisheye distortion, delivering an exaggerated point of view (POV). Additionally, the close focus mimics a bugeye effect, creating a playful, almost cartoonish distortion where subjects appear disproportionately large, adding a unique and bold aesthetic to images and videos.  Compact Housing The Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 FF Zoom Fisheye Lens is remarkably compact. This portable design makes it one of the smallest and lightest full-frame fisheye zoom lenses with a constant f/2.8 aperture, ideal for travel, adventure, and handheld shooting. Perfect for landscape photographers, vloggers, and drone-based creators, this lens delivers bold fisheye visuals without the bulk, enhancing mobility and convenience for on-the-go content creation. Expanding Options: GFX and XCD Mounts Released We’ve added GFX and XCD mount options to the Laowa 8–15mm f/2.8 FF Zoom Fisheye, which is designed for full-frame systems. Therefore, it does not provide full coverage on GFX and XCD systems, even at 15 mm.
