World’s widest native zoom lens for full frame mirrorless cameras
This is currently the world’s widest native zoom lens for full frame mirrorless cameras. It provides a wide range of perspective from 130° (10mm) to 102° (18mm) and it is excellent for landscape or architecture photography.

Light and compact
Designed primarily for travel photography, we have managed to compress the size to the smallest and lightest in its class, less than 9.1 cm (3.6 in.) and only 496g (1.1 lbs). Not only is it so much smaller than the other similar lenses in the market. it’s so much wider!

10-stroke Sunstars
An ordinary sunstar rendering can often be a deal breaker for landscape photographers. Our new Laowa 10-18mm, however, has been carefully designed to incorporate 5 straight aperture blades to produce well-defined, sharp and clean 10-stroke sunstars.

37mm rear filter
A photographer cannot create a great landscape photo without using a filter. We have conveniently designed a 37mm filter thread into the back of the lens for photographers to use ND filters with ease.

Close Focusing Distance
This lens features one of the closest focusing distances among all UWA lenses. It focuses as close as 15 cm (5.9 in.) from the sensor, which offers an additional degree of fun for making macro shots. Comparing other ultra-wide native FF Mirrorless lenses, the shortest focusing distance is only 28 cm (11 inc.) for the Sony 12-24mm and 16-35mm lenses and 30 cm (11.8 in.) Voigtlander 10mm, 12mm & 15mm lenses.

Click/Clickless Aperture
Click/clickless aperture can be toggled by the switch on the lens barrel. This added feature is extremely useful for videographers.
