LAOWA 24mm f/2 Main Features

Precise tilt of ±10° and shift of ±12mm

Shift function

With a full-frame camera, a shift of up to ±12mm is possible, allowing for precise control of perspective and easy correction of vertical lines. By combining multiple images with the shift applied, it is possible to capture ultra-wide-angle panoramic images.

Tilt function

With tilt adjustment of up to ±10°, the focal plane can be freely manipulated for practical applications as well as creative expressions such as unique miniature effects.

* The 24mm f/2 lens is designed to optimize the balance between tilt and shift performance while maintaining a compact form factor. The available tilt and shift range may vary slightly depending on the camera mount, especially when focused at infinity. Generally, the stronger the tilt, the narrower the available shift range, and vice versa.

f/2, the brightest maximum aperture.

With its ultra-large f/2 aperture, it is said to be the brightest tilt-shift lens ever for various formats. This superior light-gathering ability expands the possibilities of tilt-shift photography beyond the range of daylight, making it ideal for shooting dimly lit interiors, blue hour landscapes, and night skies.

A compact form factor for a tilt-shift lens.

Measuring 93mm in diameter and 119mm in height, and weighing just 860g, the 24mm f/2 Zero-D Tilt-Shift maintains a compact form factor for a lens in its class, making it ideal for a wide range of situations, from studio photography to on-location shoots.

Zero Distortion

LAOWA’s unique “Zero-D” optical design minimizes distortion at its source, keeping straight lines from the center to the edge of the frame. Therefore, there is no need to correct door frame warping or horizon curvature in post-processing.

Achieving tilt-shift photography with a medium format camera.

The LAOWA 24mm f/2 Zero-D is compatible with GFX and XCD medium format camera systems via a compatible mount, and fully maintains a tilt range of ±10° and a shift range of ±12mm on both the X and Y axes. With a 24mm equivalent field of view, it is said to be one of the most affordable solutions in this category for GFX and XCD users.

ADDITIONAL NEWS:

XCD mount versions of the 55mm and 100mm f/2.8 Tilt-Shift 1x Macro lenses are now available.

To expand its medium format lineup, LAOWA additionally released XCD mount versions of its existing 55mm and 100mm f/2.8 Tilt-Shift 1x Macro lenses. This expansion will give Hasselblad users greater flexibility in product photography, close-up photography, and creative tilt-shift photography.

Release date

The 24mm f/2 Zero-D Tilt-Shift, 55mm, and 100mm f/2.8 Tilt-Shift 1x Macro lenses will be available from November 5, 2026 (14:00 GMT / 22:00 HKT / 6:00 PST).
