📸 Laowa VE7520MFTSTBLK 7.5mm Lens: Capture Stunning Shots with Micro 4/3 Cameras (16.9 MP, HD 720P) in Black Review

Very happy with the purchase and got great shots. However, it takes some time to get used to the manual focus. My camera has a focus verification feature and can zoom in on the image area to confirm critical focus. It also does great sunbursts, unlike my other lenses. The attached image was taken with a Panasonic G81 with the lens attached. Edited in Lightroom to taste. Highly recommended!

really surprised and very happy with this lens. It's very wide in a Micro Four Thirds system, the widest available, and while it's entirely manual, its width makes it fairly easy to get everything in focus. Ultra-sharp across the entire frame, even with the aperture wide open. Very small but built like a tank. Not impressed with the lens hood, but that's a minor complaint. I think I will be using this lens a lot on my Panasonic G9.

So far the lens is working very well for my purposes ie photographing the night sky. I'm not posting pictures because I'm testing in my garden right now. The only problem was that the lens cap didn't close properly. He clicked, but comes off with a click again. I contacted Dodd Camera's supplier and they responded quickly with a solution: you need to rotate the cover clockwise a little until it clicks into place. Strange, but now everything is fine!

Manual focus only. This lens is perfect for me. Some vignetting is noticeable, but easily corrected in post-processing. I use filters but with a 46mm to 72mm adapter ring to reduce vignetting with ND filters sharpening at 5.6-11. But underneath it's still very sharp. All in all a great lens for your M4/3 collection, very small compared to others, I was between this and the Olympus 7-14 and pana 7-14. By price? Definitely recommend this if you're willing to give up the autofocus feature. I've…

If you're looking for a clean, wide-angle lens with very low distortion, this lens is for you. It's only compatible with Michael Four Thirds cameras, but I can tell you something about the optics of this lens. The lenses are very rich and give you a very clean and sharp image and I have to tell you that I have an 18-35mm Sigma lens which is the sharpest lens I have ever had and this lens is just as sharp and just as clean, that says a lot about the build quality and optical qualities. I would…

I highly recommend this…

I LOVE this lens! I bought it specifically for real estate. Just walk through any door and take a picture and it will take up the whole room! It pretty much captures what you see just by looking into the room without a camera. The area it covers is huge. I wish I had had a lens like this a few years ago. The f/2 lens also allows me to shoot indoors in very low light. So no flash needed. I no longer have to move as far away from the door as possible and try not to frame the door and still only…

So this little number is a real gem. I accidentally dropped it twice, once from about 3 feet onto the tile floor and once off a swamp cooler onto my roof, onto the roof and onto the grass two stories below (the hood was up both times). Nothing damaged except a small scratch on the bonnet from the roof. I try not to drop my lenses and this is the only lens I've ever dropped. Maybe he's too small? maybe it works against him. Image quality is excellent, this is a manual focus lens so you'll need…
