Laowa 9 mm T5.8 VV Cine Canon RF pushes an extreme 134.8° rectilinear view onto full-frame and Vista Vision sensors while holding barrel distortion near 2 %. The lens projects a Ø 46.31 mm image circle, covering EOS R5 C, C500 II, ALEXA LF and RED RAPTOR with margin for stabilisation. Yet the all-metal body stays nimble at roughly Ø 84 mm × 79 mm and ≈ 520 g—ideal for steadicams, FPV drones and car rigs.
An optical array of 14 elements in 10 groups—aspheric and extra-low-dispersion—safeguards edge acuity and restrains chroma on oversampled 8 K plates. The 14-blade iris keeps circular bokeh from T5.8 to T22; multilayer nano-coatings suppress flare, protecting micro-contrast for HDR LED stages. Breathing is negligible, and the 12 cm minimum object distance (0.21 ×) lets foreground props dominate without warping perspective.
Mechanics follow cine protocol: dual 0.8 mod gears, 90° focus rotation, 43.6° aperture arc, engraved metric/imperial scales and a native Canon RF mount that removes adapter flex. The uniform 80 mm front accepts clamp-on matte boxes; no filter thread means no vignette at this extreme angle. Shim rings supplied with the lens fine-tune flange distance for hybrid bodies and cinema cameras.
When cockpit POVs, LED-volume virtual sets, architectural walk-throughs or sweeping drone passes demand the broadest rectilinear frame, Laowa 9 mm T5.8 VV Cine delivers coverage, low distortion and mirrorless ergonomics in one compact housing—ready for 12-bit RAW capture, real-time engines and distortion-free Vista Vision plates straight from Canon RF. Manual focus with dual scales preserves balance on motorised heads.
