LAOWA First AutoFocus Lens Announced for Sony and Nikon

I am a big fan of Laowa lenses because of their Zero Distortion Technology. I feel the ZERO D technology is the reason behind the popularity of the Laowa brand, which offers an amazing range of perfect Zero-D lenses and Manual Focus Lenses for almost all mounts. It’s well-known that various Chinese Third Party Lens Makers brands collaborated a few months ago and agreed to share their technologies. Laowa acquired the autofocus technology from another Chinese third-party lens maker in this very collaboration. As a result, they have now introduced the first Zero-D 10mm full-frame lens for the Nikon Z-mount and Sony E-mount. The rest of their Zero-D series lenses will incorporate this autofocus technology very soon. This upcoming announcement is exciting news for those of us who appreciate third-party lens makers, specifically Laowa, for their Zero-D lenses with autofocus

So, let’s jump to the announcement zone, Marking a significant milestone in their lens-making journey, Laowa has officially unveiled their first-ever autofocus lens, the FF II 10mm F2.8 Fullframe Lens for Nikon Z and Sony E Mount. The Lens This ultra-wide prime arrives just in time for the holiday season, hitting store shelves on December 29, 2023, at an attractive price point of only 5498 yuan (approximately USD 780).
