Ultra-wide S35 cine lens for Sony E
The Venus Optics Laowa 7.5mm T2.9 Zero-D is a rectilinear cine lens built for Super 35 sensors and Sony E-mount cameras. It delivers a 123° angle of view with near-zero distortion, making it suited for narrative filmmakers, drone operators and architectural shooters who need an expansive, geometrically accurate perspective in tight spaces.
Mount and filter compatibility check
Verify that your camera uses a Sony E mount and covers a Super 35 image circle; the lens will vignette on larger formats. The front element accepts 77 mm screw-in filters directly, so confirm your matte box or filter set matches that thread size. A minimum focus distance of 25 cm or 9.84 in allows close work, but ensure your rig can accommodate the required working distance.
Metal construction with standard cine ergonomics
The barrel uses a robust metal chassis weighing 610 g or 21.51 oz, balancing durability with handheld manoeuvrability. Geared focus and aperture rings follow industry-standard 0.8 mod pitch for follow-focus units, and the 16-element, 10-group optical formula includes two ED and two aspherical elements to maintain edge-to-edge sharpness at T2.9.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and what must I buy separately?
The lens ships with front and rear caps and a petal hood; 77 mm screw-in filters are not included but can be added directly to the non-dome front element.
Which version or capacity should I choose?
Only one version exists — 7.5 mm focal length, T2.9 aperture, Sony E mount, Super 35 coverage — so no capacity or variant choice is required.
What does the 123° angle of view mean on a Super 35 camera?
It gives the widest rectilinear view available for Super 35, letting you fit expansive scenes or tight interiors with virtually zero distortion.
