Verdict

The Venus Optics Laowa 11mm f/4.5 FF RL is an ultra-wide rectilinear prime designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras, featuring a remarkable 126° angle of view and an optical construction of 14 elements in 10 groups, including two aspherical and three extra-low dispersion elements. Its main characteristics include an exceptionally compact, all-metal build weighing just 254g, a 19cm minimum focusing distance for close-up shots, and a 62mm front filter thread—a rarity for such a wide focal length. Major pros include its extreme portability, suppressed distortion, and the ability to produce clean 10-point sunstars via its 5-blade aperture. However, notable cons include significant corner vignetting, a relatively slow f/4.5 maximum aperture, lack of electronic communication for EXIF data, and a noticeable drop in sharpness toward the extreme edges of the frame.

What customers like about Venus Optics Laowa 11mm F 4 5 FF RL?

  • Incredibly compact and lightweight, making it highly portable for travel and street photography
  • Solid metal build quality with smooth, well-dampened manual focusing
  • Includes a 62mm front filter thread, which is rare for an ultra-wide 11mm lens
  • Excellent center sharpness and high contrast in the middle of images
  • Impressive 126-degree ultra-wide rectilinear field of view for landscapes and architecture
  • Produces attractive 10-point sunstars when stopped down
  • Very close minimum focusing distance of 19cm allows for creative macro-style shots

What customers dislike about Venus Optics Laowa 11mm F 4 5 FF RL?

  • Noticeable drop-off in sharpness toward the corners, especially at wider apertures
  • Heavy vignetting (light fall-off) in the corners that often requires post-production correction
  • Slow maximum aperture of f/4.5 limits low-light performance without increasing ISO
  • Completely manual with no electronic contacts, meaning no EXIF data is recorded by the camera
  • The distance and Depth of Field (DOF) scales can be inaccurately marked or difficult to use
  • Visible barrel distortion is present, though it can generally be fixed in post-processing
