Two of my favorite 3rd party lenses are discounted for the holidays the Laowa 17mm f/4 for GFX and Laowa 9mm f/2.8 for X-Mount at B&H Photo. These are two of the best wide-angle lenses you can get for Fujifilm cameras and they are very affordable. View this post on Instagram A post […]
Mattias Burling tested the COVID-19 delayed Laowa 9mm f/5.6 Zero-D for M-mount on his Fujifilm GFX50R with a Kipon adapter and it actually covers a surprising amount of the sensor with the lens hood being visible on the top and bottom of the frame.

So I haven’t posted about this lens here, but now Venus Optics sells the Laowa 25mm f/2.8 2.5-5X Ultra-Macro with an X-Mount adapter on their site. I noticed the adapter when looking at their new ring light for the Laowa 25mm f/2.8 […]
I received my Laowa 9mm f/2.8 Zero-D the other day along with the welcome kit and it seems to be a well built light lens, but it has an extremely light feel to it compared to the Samyang 8mm f/2.8 Fisheye II that I usually use for wide photos. Both lenses are very similar in size, but […]
