About Venus 15mm T4.8 Zero-D

The Laowa 15mm T4.8 Zero-D Shift Cine is a wide-angle shift lens designed for full frame and Vista Vision cameras. Featuring a +/-11mm shift function, this lens is perfect for capturing expansive scenes with precision. With an impressive image circle diameter of 65.2mm, it effortlessly covers large-format sensors like the V-Raptor VV 8K and Alexa 65. Its "Zero-Distortion" optical design ensures stunning image quality straight out of the camera, eliminating the need for post-production corrections. Get closer to your subject with a 20cm close focusing distance, allowing for breathtaking depth of field and intricate close-up details. Combined with low chromatic aberration, this lens delivers unparalleled image quality for cinematic storytelling.

Maximum +/-11mm Shift Capability
The Laowa 15mm T4.8 Shift Cine lens offers a maximum shift of +/-11mm for full-frame sensors and +/-9mm for Vista Vision sensors. This unique feature allows filmmakers to correct converging lines, ensuring straight, distortion-free architecture and interiors. Whether you're shooting towering skyscrapers or intricate interior designs, this lens maintains perfect perspective without the need for tilting the camera.

Perspective Control
Unlike any other standard lens that cinematographers need to tilt the camera upwards to capture tall buildings and converging lines will appear, a shift lens can maintain straight architecture and interiors without changing the camera's perspective.

Eliminating Reflections
By shifting the lens, the position of the camera can be hidden away, achieving a clean and reflection-free shot.

Huge Image Circle
The image circle diameter of the 15mm T4.8 is 65.2 mm to accommodate the shift function. This lens serves as a new and compelling option for large-format camera users. It covers RED V-Raptor 8K Vista Vision 17:9 (46.31mm), Blackmagic URSA Cine 17K 65 (65mm) & ARRI Alexa 65 (59.86mm).

"Zero-Distortion"
The 15mm T4.8 Shift Cine's "Zero-D" design ensures minimal distortion, even before shifting, saving you time and effort on post-production.

Close Focus Capability
With a close focusing distance of just 20cm, this lens can capture macro-like shots with stunning detail.

Excellent Sharpness
With top-notch optical design, the lens delivers exceptional sharpness and performs exceptionally in controlling chromatic aberration.

0.8 Gear Mod
The focus, aperture, and shift rings are equipped with 0.8 mod gears, providing precise control and smooth operation.

Dual Scale
Both metric and imperial scales are printed on the lens, facilitating focus reading in all settings.
