Laowa 12mm T2.9 Zero-D Cine - Arri PL (Meters)
The new 12mm lens is currently the widest t/2.9 lens that can cover sensor up to both full-frame & vista vision size (wider than full-frame), making it one of the ideal wide-angle option for both professional cinema cameras and mirrorless cameras.
Suitable for both Large format & Super35 cameras
The image circle allows cinematographers to use not only on full-frame sensors (Size = 43.14mm), but also able to fill the Vista Vision sensors on RED Monstro and the sensor on Arri Alexa LF (Size @ open-gate = 44.7mm) fully. The lens is also ideal for Super35-sized camera owners with the ultra-wide 17mm equivalent field of view and its future-proof decision when cinematographers need to upgrade to large format cameras.
Super compact & lightweight
This 12mm lens is extremely compact and lightweight despite of the extreme specifications. It measures 3.4” (87mm) long and weighs less than 1.5 lb (675g). It can be easily fitted onto any sorts of stabilizations system including handheld gimbals.
