Laowa 4mm f/2,8 Fisheye for Fujifilm X

360 Full Panorama Image Creation

Photographers can create a 360 full panorama image with a minimum of 2-3 shots. The lens weighs only 4.8 oz (135 g), making it extremely portable and allowing photographers to have creative shots anywhere, anytime. The lens can also be mounted on DJI Inspire X5 cameras for creating a unique perspective you have never seen before.

Unique Features

• 210° full featured lens for a selfie-stick-free experience.
• Capture more than what your eyes can see with a 210° angle of view.
• Perfect for various shooting setups such as selfies, vlogs, skateboard shooting, 360 panorama, VR imaging, virtual tours, or even flying with drones.

Compact and Lightweight

As tiny as an egg, this creative lens has its place in your pocket. With only 135g, you can literally put it in your pocket and pull it out for some special shots at any time. The compact size and lightweight also make it perfect for various shooting setups.

Low-Light Performance

Despite its petite body, this lens features a fast maximum aperture at f/2.8. When more light gets in, photographers can enjoy higher flexibility in the creation of avant-garde, gimmicky shots even under low-light conditions. This lens adds extra fun to traditional astrophotography, enhancing starry night and nightscape shots.

Close Focus Capability

The 3.1 (8cm) closest focus distance (object to the sensor) means that you can focus on any object just a finger away. It enables photographers to get really close to the subject and emphasize the details. The exaggerating angle of view will also provide alternatives to create amusing images of big-headed animals (including your friends).

Depth of Field

Simply stop down the aperture to f/5.6 (or above), and you can concentrate on your compositions without worrying about focusing! The huge depth of field can cover almost everything in the scene.

Outstanding Sharpness

The image sharpness of the 4mm lens is incredible! The lens is not just sharp at the center but also produces a clear image at the edge. This is very useful when de-fishing the image or cropping out the center part for an ultra-wide angle shot.

Vlogging and Action Footage

With the ultra-wide 210° FOV, you can easily create a full 360 panorama using a maximum of 2-3 images, as opposed to shooting 6 images or more with conventional fisheye lenses. This lens is particularly good for VR photography and shooting virtual tours. Apart from the 360 degrees panorama, spherical panoramas are also possible with this tiny fisheye lens.

HFR HD Crop Application

Another good application of the 4mm lens is to use it on the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera under HFR HD Crop mode. Due to the outstanding sharpness and ultra-wide 210° angle of view, the image still looks crisp after cropping the black area away. The HD crop successfully eliminates the black circle in the frame and transforms the lens into a budget ultra-wide angle lens.

De-Fishing Images

You can also de-fish the images to get some ultra-wide angle shots. The sharpness of the 4mm helps to retain a clear image after the de-fishing process.

Crop Options
