Ultra-wide 122° rectilinear view

The Venus Laowa 12mm f/2.8 Lite Zero-D FF is an ultra-wide prime lens built for full-frame mirrorless cameras. It delivers a 122° angle of view with virtually zero distortion, making it suitable for landscape, architecture and interior photographers who need an expansive, rectilinear perspective.

Mount choice determines aperture style

The lens is offered in Sony E, Nikon Z, Canon RF and L mount versions. Autofocus is available on Sony E and Nikon Z mounts with a 5-blade aperture that renders 10-point sunstars, while manual-focus versions for Canon RF and L mount use a 14-blade design for smoother bokeh. Select the mount that matches your camera system and preferred aperture behaviour.

Lightweight at 377 g with fast f/2.8

Weighing 377 g in the AF Sony E mount version, the lens adds minimal bulk to a mirrorless kit. Its maximum aperture of f/2.8 provides strong low-light capability and shallow depth-of-field control without requiring high ISO settings. The compact optical design keeps the centre of gravity close to the body for balanced handling during extended shooting sessions.
