This lens has a 5.71-inch minimum focusing distance and 114° super-wide angle of view, both of which can allow people to take some stunning images with much details and information in the background.
Its auto aperture features CPU chips and motors, meaning that users can adjust and control the aperture via their camera body. It has 10-points sunstars when stepping down the aperture. You can put 67mm filter thread directly on the lens.
The Laowa official says that its focusing scale adjustment system can allow photographers to focus calibration easily.
