Venus Optics is coming with a new Laowa 15mm full frame tilt-shift lens

By PR admin | Published: September 30, 2020

FujiAddict reported today that Venus Optics is coming with a new Laowa 15mm full-frame tilt-shift lens:

“I received a new tip from a source that Venus Optics LAOWA has a new full-frame 15mm tilt-shift lens coming that has been tested on a 44x33mm sensor without much vignetting. This lens is still in development so details may change, but on the GFX you can safely shift by 7-8mm diagonally and vertical shift by up to 11mm. Many in the GFX community have been eagerly awaiting a good shift lens so this will give them yet another option when it is formally announced.”
