Laowa's compact lens for MFT cameras. The 17mm focal length makes it an excellent choice for street photography or documentary photography.

• Lightweight (172g)
• 1x Super-ED element: better sharpness and less flare
• 15cm minimum focusing distance
• Fully manual
• Small enough to use with a gimbal or drone

Because the lens is small and lightweight, it is easy to take with you. It is also suitable for use with both gimbals and MFT-compatible drones.

Inside the lens's metal body, there are a total of 9 lens elements, one of which is a Super-ED element, which reduces flare and chromatic aberration. It also improves image sharpness. The 15cm focusing distance allows you to focus on very close subjects.

Bright background highlights create a beautiful Sunstar effect, while bokeh is soft and emphasizes the in-focus subject.
