Laowa 200mm f2 AF FF Telephoto Lens

The Laowa 200mm f/2 AF FF Telephoto Lens realises the dream of owning a high-performance, bright-aperture lens with a focal length optimised for flattering compression and beautiful bokeh. Historically, this class of lens commanded a heavy price and weight, placing it out of reach for most. The Laowa 200mm f/2 changes this, bringing professional telephoto performance with precise autofocus to portrait, concert, and indoor sports applications.

Note:
1) Sony E: Due to Sony firmware restrictions on third-party lenses, maximum frame rate is limited to 15fps in AF-C mode, and teleconverters are not supported.

2) Sony E & Nikon Z: The supplied rear filter is part of the lens's optical formula. Keep the clear glass in place or replace it with another filter to maintain image quality. Operating without a filter will degrade optical performance.

3) Canon RF: Autofocus supported via EF-RF adapters. Please verify adapter compatibility with your camera model before purchase.

This optical design resurrects a special formula for enhanced bokeh combined with flattering compression. Many portrait, sport and event photographers have yearned over the years to own a 200mm f/2 lens due to the unique 3-dimensional rendering that makes their images stand out from others. However, due to price, weight and availability, this has stayed out of reach for many.

Until now. With our Laowa 200mm f/2 lens, we bring this speciality lens within reach. 
Affordability balanced with sharp optics, a bright aperture and precise autofocus. Available for Sony E, Nikon Z and Canon EF mounts. Compatibility can be extended to Canon RF cameras via a compatible adapter.

Optically you will find the lens exhibits well controlled chromatic aberrations and detail down to f/2. This also allows usage of lower ISOs for better performance in low light events like concerts and indoor sports. We also sport a class leading minimum focus distance of only 150cm.

The weather-sealed lens housing stays compact and light while being equipped with many features. There is a selectable AF/MF switch, aperture de-click, focus range limiter, and a programmable FN button on 5 easy to reach locations to match your shooting style & subject matter.

An Arca-compatible lens support is included, with a rotatable collar and removable foot. Sony E and Nikon Z models feature a 43mm rear filter holder with a clear filter mounted by default, allowing for more affordable CPL and ND filters compared to using the front 105mm thread.

Notable features include

• Affordable, High Quality Full-Frame optics
  
• Bright f/2 Aperture: Powerful Compression & Enhanced Bokeh
  
• Precise Autofocus (RF compatible via adapters)
  
• Well-controlled Chromatic Aberration
