Venus Optics / B&H Photo / Adorama
The Laowa 19mm f/2.8 Zero-D for GFX was announced at the end of last year and generally. DPRTV posted their review, which you can watch above or check out excerpts from the review below:
- Fully metal construction
- Super smooth focus ring with a nice clicky aperture ring
- Great for doing hyper-focal focusing
- 77mm filter threat
- Comes with a metal hood
- 550g, it is quite compact and lightweight for what it is
- Fully mechanical lens
- No electrical contacts
- Very low distortion, so minimal if any correction needs to be done after
- 18cm is the close focus distance, so 1:5 magnification
- Bokeh has nice smooth transitions when things are out of focus
- 5 bladed aperture
- Round bokeh balls, but when you stop down, you get pentagons
- Quite dramatic sunstars even at f/8
- No major loss of contrast
- Lots of ghosting
- The center and corners improve as you stop down to f/5.6, but f/8 and f/11 are pretty ideal
- Upclose there is almost a bullseye pattern of sharpness
- The 100MP sensor might want a little too much from the sample they used, but it is great on the 50MP sensor
- A great option if you only shoot this wide occasionally otherwise, go for the Fujinon 20-35mm or Fujinon 23mm
