Laowa 19mm f/2.8 Zero-D - Hasselblad XCD Mount

Laowa 19mm f2.8 Zero-D - Hasselblad XCD Mount. Specifically designed for Medium Format sensors, the 19mm f2.8 Zero-D is one of the smallest in its class. Despite being built in a compact manner, the lens can capture an incredible AoV of 110° with close-to-zero distortion. Its f2.8 large aperture allows photographers to shoot in darker environments or create a pleasing out-of-focus background. A beautiful 10-point sunstar can be rendered from its 5 aperture blades. With a minimum focusing distance of 18cm, photographers can get extremely close to their subject. Photographers can mount suitable circular filters with the 77mm filter thread. Weighing 546 g and being 80 mm long, this lens is an excellent choice to bring along while travelling around.               EXCEPTIONALLY LIGHT AND COMPACT   As a wide-angle lens, it weighs only 546 g and is 80 mm long. Its compact size is closer to the one of a full-frame lens, perfect for photographers who wish to travel around or simply want to have a lighter setup.         110° ULTRA-WIDE ANGLE OF VIEW   An ultra-wide 110° AoV allows photographers to do various types of photography, including landscape, interior, architecture and astrophotography with ease. Feel free to shock the world with spectacular sightings and details!           EQUIVALENT TO 15MM ON FULL FRAME 35MM FORMAT SENSOR   Due to the 0.79x “crop” factor of the medium format-sized sensor, the lens is equivalent to a 15mm lens on a 35mm format sensor. It is extremely helpful when shooting in tight spaces.       f2.8 FAST APERTURE   This 19mm lens has a fast aperture of f2.8, allowing photographers to capture in low-light environments without bumping up the ISO. In addition, this lens can provide a better background separation between the subject.       ZERO DISTORTION   As the latest member of the Laowa “Zero-D” product line-up, this 19mm lens can also exhibit close-to-zero optical distortion. This particular feature comes in handy when doing architecture and interior photography as all the straight lines can now be retained. Utilize this feature to present your photos in their most natural state!           18 CM MINIMUM FOCUSING DISTANCE   Having an 18 cm minimum focusing distance, photographers can get extremely close to the subject while still being able to include the background information in the scene.       77MM FILTER THREAD   Despite the ultra-wide angle of view, this lens is still able to have a 77mm front filter thread. Photographers can quickly attach screw-on filters for maximum creativity control under different lighting conditions.       10-POINT SUNSTAR   The 5 aperture blades render a mesmerising 10-Point Sunstar. A photographer can easily achieve this effect by stopping down the aperture.           FOCUSING SCALE ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM   This lens has the same focusing scale adjustment system as the full-frame 14mm does. This feature allows easy focus calibration against users’ own cameras. The actual infinity point would be right on the infinity mark, making it helpful in shooting in the field, especially for astrophotography.         SPECIFICATIONS   Focal Length: 19mm Angle of View: 110° Aperture Range: f2.8-22 Format Compatibility: Medium Format Lens Structure: 12 elements in 10 groups (2 Aspherical Lens, 3 ED glass, 1 UHR glass) Aperture Blades: 5 Min.
