Any filter capabilities?
Asked by: chris
The Venus Optics Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 Fisheye Lens (Sony E) (B&H# VE815FE) does not offer any attachment points for filters, whether front or rear. The angle of view would result in any filter or matte box that might be attached to the front of the lens causing vignetting. Having said that, there are in-body filters available for use with some cameras such as the Kase ND8 Clip-In Filter for Select Sony Alpha Cameras (B&H# KAND8SA).
