Vista Vision coverage
The Laowa 12mm T2.9 Zero-D VV covers the Vista Vision format, making it compatible with larger format cameras such as the Red Raptor 8K VV (Ø 46.31 mm) and Alexa LF Open Gate (Ø 44.71 mm).

Ultra-wide rectilinear perspective
With a wide 122° angle of view, users can create previously impossible shots and easily shoot indoors.
The ultra-wide perspective also creates an exaggerated sense of space, making it useful for certain situations or for dramatic effects.

Zero Distortion
Distortion is a common problem with wide angle lenses, but Laowa lenses stand out with their "Zero-Distortion" design.
The Laowa 12mm T2.9 Zero-D VV Cine features low distortion optical elements that achieve near zero distortion.
This design eliminates the challenges cinematographers face when shooting architecture, interiors or scenes with straight lines, ensuring precise framing
without the need for post-production corrections.
It also benefits visual effects artists by making it easier to track, composite and seamlessly integrate CGI elements into shots.

Close Focusing Capability
The close focusing capability of just 14cm gives cinematographers greater creative flexibility, making it easier to achieve shallow depth of field and beautiful bokeh.
Getting closer to your subject with a wide-angle lens also enhances the foreground elements, adding depth and visual impact to the scene.
While not a true macro lens, these close focusing distances allow you to capture fine details and achieve close-up shots.

Compact and lightweight design
Weighing in at around 560g, this lightweight and versatile lens is ideal for a variety of shooting setups, including gimbals, drones, handheld shooting, rigs and other stabilization equipment.
Their compact size is perfect for shooting on the move, allowing for dynamic shots and camera movements.
Their small size also makes them easy to use in tight spaces.
