Good lens, iffy lens hood.
It?s a good lens but the lack of any kind of electronic controls kills it for me. Better off buying an AF lens.
Also, the lens hood is nice because it?s metallic, but it just doesn?t fit to the lens well. Mine felt loose and it didn?t really lock in when turned.

Love this lens!
What an incredible lens! When they say Zero D, they really do mean zero distortion or very close to it. My previous wide angle lens always needed a lot of vertical adjustment in lightroom which ended up requiring a crop which then reduced the wide angle view. Not with this lens! It?s pretty much WYSIWYG! Also, the sharpeness of the lens is impeccable. There is some vignetting but it?s to be expected on such a wide focal length and it is easily corrected in Lightroom using the vignetting slider. It makes beautiful starbursts too.

Great Lens!
Really great lens. Great build quality and remarkable images. Still some distortion, but very minimal. Focus throw feels great, and so does the aperture ring. Also like how the aperture has a function to deactivate the click. Great overall lens.

Manual but low distortion
Sharp; for horizontal shots little barrel distortion compared to fish eye. More Vignetting than I had hoped for.
I warmed up to the manual focus and aperture control.
Overall a good choice for a fast wide field lens

Good for night sky
Bought it mostly for night sky photography. The manual focus ring is smooth and build feels pretty good. at F2 vignette is noticeable at night however I don't think this is a big issue. Lightroom can easily correct it. It is lighter and significantly smaller compared to my old Rokinon 14mm. Overall I think this is an excellent choice!

I took a chance after seeing a bunch of You Tube reviews. Not disappointed.

Sharp and lightweight low light performer
Beautiful lens. Lightweight and sharp. No distortion. Great for photos and video. Photos at f8 are great. Shooting real estate videos at f2 was a breeze

Pretty amazing
Ive done a pretty thorough test on the lens at all f stops, very impressed with its sharpness and color rendition, looking forward to their 10-18mm coming out soon.

Your first and last wide angle! If autofocus isn’t your thing.
Perfect lens. I switched from my rokinon 14mm 2.8. I switched mainly for the extra stop when shooting Astro and since I plan on making videos for real estate and love the zero-D it’s not perfect but it’s damn close. Only noticed the distortion at awkward angles but when held equal axis it’s perfect! Only complaint would be no autofocus but I knew what my uses are and it does just that. And an obvious reason why it’s cheaper than autofocus lenses.

Amazing wide angle lens with great performance.
The Laowa D-Dreamer 15mm F2 is an amazing lens for wide angle shots. I am very pleased with its performance and it is very fun to shoot. The extra accessories the lens came with in the bundle were a nice touch.
