LAOWA 14mm f/4 FF RL Zero-D for Nikon Z

LAOWA 14mm f/4 FF RL Zero-D for Leica M

Extremely compact wide-angle lens without distortion

The 14mm f/4 FF RL Zero-D is currently* probably the smallest and lightest wide-angle lens with a 114° angle of view for mirrorless cameras with full-frame sensors. It is only 5.9cm long and weighs just 228g. This makes it the ideal companion for the new compact full-frame cameras and perfect as an "always-on lens" for landscape, architecture and astrophotography.

Although it is so small and light, no compromises have been made in terms of function, image quality and construction. In the solid metal housing, 13 lenses in 10 groups ensure maximum sharpness and minimum chromatic aberration and reduce distortion to an absolute minimum. The short closest focusing distance of 27cm allows creative wide-angle shots with sharpness down to the close-up range. Thanks to the 5 aperture blades, a beautiful 10-beam reflection results when shooting against the sun or a point light source.

Unlike many other wide-angle lenses with large spherical front lenses, this 14mm lens has only a small front lens and a 52mm filter thread. Thus, 52mm screw-in filters and - with a holder available as an accessory - 100mm rectangular filters can be used. With Leica M cameras, a rangefinder coupling is provided. Focusing and aperture adjustment is manual.
