With advanced perspective and focus control, the Venus Optics Laowa 35mm f/2.8 is a wide tilt-shift macro lens designed for architectural, macro, and tabletop photographers. With a minimum focusing distance of 9" and 0.5x maximum magnification, it provides the flexibility needed to capture stunning and precise images.
Wide Tilt-Shift Lens
Offers ±10° of tilt and ±8mm of shift to correct perspective distortion and manipulate focus while a 35mm focal length captures a wide perspective, ideal for immersive architectural and tabletop shots. The tilt function can create either an expansive, sharp-to-the-horizon focus or a narrow, selective focus for a "miniature" effect. The shift function can be used to correct perspective and take multiple photos for panoramic stitching. The lens is also able to rotate 360° in 15° clicking increments.
Macro Functionality
Thanks to the minimum focusing distance of 9" and a 0.5x magnification rate, this lens is perfect for product and macro photography. Choose exactly what you want to have in focus thanks to the ±10° tilt functionality.
As part of the Zero-D series, this lens has an optical design that renders subjects with minimal distortion in order to suit architectural, interior, and landscape applications. A water-repellent "frog eye" coating also protects the front lens element from water droplets and moisture.
