Expanded Laowa 4mm f2.8 Circular Fisheye Lens for Nikon Z Key Features:

Expansive Field of View

A 4mm lens is by nature going to provide a huge field of view. The Laowa 4mm f2.8 Circular Fisheye provides a super-wide 210° angle of view and a unique perspective, which allows for enhanced creative expression unachievable with standard lens. Thanks to the super-wide 210° field of view, you’re able to create incredible 360° panoramas with just 2-3 images, which would take at least 6 on conventional fisheye lenses. In addition, because of the FOV, you can use this lens for shooting virtual tours or VR photography.

Compact and Lightweight

This lens weighs in at a tiny 135g, which means it’ll easily fit in any kit bag, or even your pocket, should the occasion call for it! The fact that this lens is so small and lightweight means that you can get creative with the shots that you’re taking such as selfies and vlog-style video shoots.

Traditionally, fisheye lenses are often used for shooting skateboarding photos and videos, and the fact it’s so lightweight means that the person filming can have more confidence in their hand-held shooting stance. Additionally, the size and weight make it ideal for use on drones or gimbals where you are limited by weight.

Complete Control

As well as the incredible field of view, the Laowa also offers a very close 8cm close focus distance. This close focusing distance allows you to continue being creative in the ways that you compose your shots. Because of the distortion that is present in fisheye lenses, you can play with how this affects your subject.

Also, the lens offers an impressive control of depth of field. You have the scope to have your aperture wide open at F2.8, which is ideal for astrophotography or simply capturing street photography at night, but also you can stop down to F5.6 and above to find a perfect focus for almost any scene.
