Made for Sony E-mount camera systems and lightweight at 10.9 oz, this lens provides unparalleled opportunities for creative exploration in wildlife, architecture, urban sports, and other content creation. This particular version of the lens includes the auto-aperture function.

With a 1.4" minimum shooting distance from the front of the lens, the Laowa 15mm f/4.5 allows you to get incredibly close to your subject, opening up even more unique framing options. The 5-bladed diaphragm allows you to create 10-pointed sunstars from light sources while the optical design contains 16 elements in 11 groups, including aspherical, ED, and HR glass elements for reduced distortion and improved image quality.
This model includes an auto-aperture feature to improve the user experience by allowing photographers to focus more on their composition, while letting their camera determine the best aperture value. Electrical contacts on the lens mount allow for the transmission of Exif data.
