It seems like Laowa will be releasing their first full-frame autofocus lens (but not autofocus for us) and it’s a 10mm F2.8 and still a fairly compact lens. They claim near zero distortion and the MTF’s look good enough that it may even be half decent with coma. If so, this would almost immediately be a lens in any astro-landscaper’s toolkit.
The price according to weibo seems to be around $850 USD, which isn’t bad for a 10mm F2.8 prime. From the specifications, it appears that there are two different RF versions one with 14 aperture blades and the other with 5.
The MTF is it’s accurate, then it looks fantastic. It looks almost too good to be true, but Laowa delivered before, so there’s that to consider.
Also, please don’t ask me what Frog Eye Coating is.
You can get Laowa products from B&H Photovideo though this lens is not currently available.
