Laowa 7.5mm T2.9 Zero-D S35 Cine Lens - Nikon Z

Laowa 7.5mm T2.9 Zero-D S35 Cine Lens (Nikon Z) – Ultra-wide 7.5mm with Zero Distortion for Super35

The Laowa 7.5mm T2.9 Zero-D S35 Cine Lens for Nikon Z mounts delivers an ultra-wide 7.5mm field of view tailored to Super35 cameras. It uses Laowa’s Zero-D (Zero Distortion) optical design to keep straight lines straight, which makes it a practical choice for architectural and interior cinematography. The lens combines a bright T2.9 aperture, robust all-metal construction, and professional cine-standard gearing to support demanding production workflows.

Key optical features

The lens uses an advanced optical formula made up of 16 elements in 10 groups. This construction includes aspherical and extra-low dispersion elements to reduce chromatic aberration and maintain sharpness across the frame. Because it employs Laowa’s Zero-D technology, the lens minimizes geometric distortion, making it easier to capture architectural subjects and interiors without corrective processing.

Aperture, focus and control

The bright T2.9 aperture gives you greater control over depth of field and improved low-light performance compared with slower cine primes. In addition, the lens provides fully manual focus and aperture control, enabling precise cinematic adjustments during a take. Both the focus and aperture rings use standard 0.8 mod gearing, so they integrate smoothly with professional follow-focus units and cine rigs.

Close focusing and mechanical build

This Laowa lens focuses down to 25 cm, which allows for creative close-up compositions while retaining the dramatic perspective of an ultra-wide focal length. The barrel is constructed from metal for durability, and the overall compact, lightweight design suits handheld, gimbal, and drone use where size and balance matter.

Intended uses and mount

Designed specifically for Super35 cameras, the Laowa 7.5mm is well suited to landscape cinematography, architectural shots, immersive interiors, and dynamic action sequences. It is supplied in the Nikon Z mount version, making it compatible with Nikon Z mirrorless bodies adapted for Super35 use.
