Unleash unparalleled creative and technical control with the revolutionary Laowa 35mm f/ 2.8 Zero-D Tilt-Shift 0.5 x Macro lens. This unique optic redefines specialized photography by combining three powerful functions: precision shift to correct converging lines in architecture and create seamless panoramas with extensive movements up to +/-8mm artistic tilt to manipulate your plane of focus for captivating miniature effects, extended depth of field, or selective blur with precise adjustments +/-10 Degree and detailed macro capabilities to explore intricate worlds with 0.5 x maximum magnification and a class-leading 22.8 cm minimum focusing distance. Consistent Sharpness and Clarity Across the FrameBuilt with Laowa's renowned Zero-D optical design and APO elements, it delivers exceptional sharpness, clarity, and virtually no distortion across its wide 35mm focal length. Ideal for architectural, landscape, product, and fine art photographers, this lens empowers you to explore new creative possibilities and is compatible with a Fujifilm GFXShift of +/-8mmThe shift function of the Laowa 35mm f/ 2.8 Zero-D Tilt-Shift 0.5 x Macro lens is an indispensable tool for photographers seeking unparalleled control over perspective and composition. This is most critically used in architectural photography to correct the dreaded "converging verticals. " When photographing tall buildings, the shift function enables you to keep the camera perfectly level, thus maintaining parallel lines, while still framing the entire structure.
This eliminates distortion and presents a geometrically accurate representation of your subject. The lens offers a generous robust +/-8mm of shift on Fujifilm GFX, providing ample room for precise adjustments. Beyond correction, shift is invaluable for creating seamless panoramas; by shifting the lens horizontally, you can capture multiple frames from the same precise camera position, avoiding parallax errors and ensuring perfect stitches in post-production. It also allows for creative framing by avoiding reflections or obstructions, ultimately granting you superior control and a cleaner image straight out of the camera. Tilt of +/-10 DegreeThe tilt function of the Laowa 35mm f/ 2.8 Zero-D Tilt-Shift 0.5 x Macro lens unlocks extraordinary control over your image's plane of focus, offering both profound creative possibilities and practical advantages. With a generous +/-10 Degree of tilt on Fujifilm GFX, photographers can achieve the captivating "miniature effect", transforming expansive scenes into charming, toy-like dioramas by compressing the depth of field to a narrow band. Conversely, tilt is an incredibly powerful tool for extending depth of field. In landscape or product photography, you can align the plane of focus with a receding subject or ground, achieving sharpness from the immediate foreground to the distant background, even at wider apertures, thereby avoiding diffraction artifacts often encountered when stopping down excessively.
This precise manipulation of focus also allows for selective blur, directing the viewer's eye and adding an artistic dimension unmatched by conventional lenses. 0.5 x MagnificationAdding a powerful dimension to its versatility, the Laowa 35mm f/ 2.8 Zero-D Tilt-Shift 0
