Laowa 10mm f2 Zero-D ultra-wide lens - Micro Four Thirds MFT

An extremely tiny ultra-wide lens (weighing only 125g) for Micro Four Third cameras. This 10mm Zero-D lens pairing with f/2 large aperture handles different shooting situations easily. Offering a 96° Angle of view and equipped with 46mm filter threads, no matter using for landscape, astrophotography or architectural photography, the lens is always able to produce impressive results without any extra burden.

The lens is also equipped with a CPU chip and motor. You can now control the aperture in-camera and record all the metadata in the EXIF. It will also be perfect for vlogging, drones and other lightweight videography setups.

Laowa 10mm f/2 Zero-D MFT is an ultra-wide & ultra-fast prime lens with a 35mm equivalent focal length of around 20mm ( 96° Angle of view ). With the enthusiastic response for the Laowa 7.5mm f/2 MFT and 9mm f/2.8 Zero-D, we decided to take a step forward to a longer focal length but retain and further refine the outstanding optical design.

Super Light and Compact
Its compactness i.e. 41mm long and 125g in weight makes itself comfortable for those who do videos with gimbals or handheld, avoiding excessive shaking. With the versatile focal length and such portability, it would be the perfect set-up for outdoor shooting, vlogging and flying with drones.

Auto Aperture
The 10mm is assembled with a CPU chip and motor which the photographers can adjust the aperture via the camera body. The focus magnifier will be triggered for easier focus while rotating the focus ring.

Fast Aperture
Designed with the ultra-fast f/2 aperture, sharper images can be obtained in dimly lit settings which is advantageous in nightscape shooting and astrophotography. It also provides greater flexibility in camera setting like maintaining a low lSO in low-light conditions.

Zero Distortion

Being the second MFT lens in the line-up of “Zero-D”, it retains the excellent performance on the optical distortion control, which is commonly found in ultra-wide-angle lenses. This lens would be perfect for architectural shooting.

10-point Sunstars
Designed with five aperture blades in the 10mm f/2 Zero-D MFT, photographers can create perfect and fancy 10-point sunstars by stepping down the aperture.

Close Minimum Focusing Distance
The minimum focusing distance is 12cm long. With such a close distance, an exaggerated perspective and smooth bokeh can be created easily.

Understanding: Aperture

Aperture is the opening in a camera lens that controls how much light enters the camera. It's measured in f-stops like f/2.8 or f/8. Lower f-stop numbers mean wider openings, letting in more light and creating a shallow depth of field (blurry background). Higher f-stop numbers mean smaller openings, letting in less light and creating a larger depth of field (more of the scene in focus). Aperture also affects the quality of out-of-focus areas in the image (bokeh).

Understanding: Lens Types

Different lenses have different purposes to achieve different styles of images, some popular ones include:
Prime Lens: Fixed focal length, sharp images, great for portraits and dark settings.
Zoom Lens: Variable focal length, versatile for different shots and everyday use..
Wide-Angle Lens: Captures wide scenes like landscapes.
Telephoto Lens: Magnifies distant subjects, ideal for sports & wildlife.
Macro Lens: Perfect for close-up photography of small subjects.
Fisheye Lens: Ultra-wide perspective, creates unique images.

Understanding: Lens Mounts

Different camera brands use different lens mounts, which are like connectors that attach lenses to camera bodies. Each mount is specific to a particular brand and camera series. For example, Canon uses the EF and RF mounts, Nikon uses the F mount, Sony uses the E mount for its mirrorless cameras. These mounts dictate which lenses are compatible with which cameras. Some brands offer adapters to use lenses from other systems, but it's essential to ensure compatibility for proper functionality and autofocus performance.

Understanding: Manual and Autofocus

Manual focus and autofocus are two ways to adjust the sharpness of a camera lens. With manual focus, you turn a ring on the lens to bring the subject into focus yourself, giving you full control over what appears sharp in the image. Autofocus, on the other hand, relies on the camera's built-in technology to automatically adjust the focus for you, usually by detecting contrast or phase differences in the scene. Autofocus can be convenient, especially for fast-moving subjects or when you need to capture a quick shot, whereas manual focus allows for precise adjustments and creative control over the final image.
