This lens will be reviewed on the 42mp Sony A7rII and the 24mp Leica M10.
Laowa introduced 3 ultra wide angle lenses at roughly the same time in Summer 2020. This 11mm 4.5 FF-RL is in the one in the middle in terms of focal length and maximum aperture, but is it the goldilock’s lens in this set or should you rather stick to the record breaking 9mm lens or the low distortion 14mm lens?

This lens will be reviewed on the 42mp Sony A7rII and the 24mp Leica M10.
