  • Type

    Ultra-Wide Zoom

    Ultra-wide angle lenses with zoom capability and a shooting angle of approximately 180°. They have a strong distortion effect which is usually the desired effect. Their focal distance usually starts from 15-23mm in full frame, 8-15mm in crop frame, and 30-45mm in medium format.

  • Mount

    The type of mount that the camera body must have in order for the lens to be fully functional when attached to it.

    2. Some lenses can be used with older mounts from the same manufacturer, sacrificing certain functions (e.g. autofocus), or even with mounts from other manufacturers using an adapter.

  • Item

    Lenses with variable optical (zoom) that remain equally bright (same maximum aperture value) throughout the entire focal distance range they offer. Usually significantly more expensive than their variable aperture counterparts.

    Variable Aperture Zoom

    Lenses with variable optics (zoom) that do not remain equally bright (different maximum aperture value) throughout the entire focal distance they offer. Usually significantly cheaper than their equivalent fixed aperture counterparts.

  • Sensor Type

    Full Frame

    Photographic lenses designed for use on full frame sensor cameras. A full frame lens can also be used on a crop frame sensor camera, but with its focal length adjusted according to the corresponding crop factor.

    For example, a full frame lens with a focal length of 50mm (standard) on a camera body with a crop factor of 1.6 will function with a perspective as if it were an 80mm lens (telephoto).

    The reverse does not work as the optics of a crop frame lens are not sufficient to cover an entire full frame sensor, resulting in the edges of the frame being black (severe vignetting).

  • Maximum Aperture (f)

    Opening the diaphragm determines the amount of light received by the camera and affects the depth of field.
    2. The most open aperture of a lens is called the maximum. The more open the aperture (smaller f-number), the shallower the depth of field.

    This lens is a reason for someone to make the transition to FF.

    It is the widest rectilinear FF zoom lens regardless of the manufacturer, and the images it produces at 10mm are simply impressive...
    It is not the sharpest lens and it has noticeable vignetting, but it compensates with the overall result.
    It is sharp in the center even when wide open, but the edges require 1-2 stops down for the best/uniform result. Every photo feels like a panorama!
    Very high-quality construction and quite small for what it is. It balances very well on the a7R II.
    It is so wide that even on a crop body, it remains wide-angle!
    The best focal length is between 10~14mm.
    It accepts 37mm filters (!!!) on the back or 100mm square filters with the dedicated filter holder from Laowa.
