You can now jump onto Laowa's Indiegogo listing (disclaimer: Indiegogo isn't a pre-order. The last nanomorphs took forever to arrive...) and see all the stats and details for yourself, but here are the important bits:
- Super 35 coverage but there are plenty of YT videos now showing that it can cover full frame (especially the 50-100mm) so don't stress too much
- 1.5x squeeze is great but the better spec is that it is par focal as well. This is absolutely crazy for the price.
- $21,593 HKD (feel free to do the conversion to your currency) means that for the quality of the lens, there isn't much of a difference in price to spherical zooms. So if you can sneak in anamorphic for your clients plus your fun shooting, this is a no brainer.
- Basically all the same characteristics as the primes. We have the 35mm prime so we might get it out and do some comparisons once we get these in our hands.
Here is one of our favourite YT videos with actual footage, so definitely go support Ed and tell him we sent you!
