wong kar-wai used absurdly wide 6mm for his iconic films and they're visual gems.

[@renestaempfli1071]

9mm is extraordinary. I have the 10mm Voigtländer for e-mount. You can get very interresting pictures once you figured out, how to compose them. As you said, it probably should not be your first wide angle lens. Laowa produces some very interresting lenses. I own their shift lenses.

[@theowlfromduolingo7982]

Yes it seems to be a fun lens for sure and I’m happy it exists. But just because it covers everything, it doesn’t mean it’s for every scenario. Just like a filter it should be considered wisely when this lens is appropriate.

Great video Mark. So great to see my city, Melbourne (!) pop up in your shots

[@egeidal]

You're fast becoming my go-to guy for lens reviews, Mark!!! Great video!!! The only thing that might bring in more people to your excellent reviews, is putting the name of the lens somewhere in the description so it becomes a searchable term. Other than that... Keep up the good work!!!!

[@Daniel_Borisov]

Wow, I'm a subscriber but didn't realize the lens model names are missing. Great point! Non-subscribers would really need the lens model names when KZbin suggests videos from this channel. If I compare this channel to Christopher Frost's channel, Christopher always puts the lens model names in the video title or thumbnail. That really stands out in search results. It's not innovative but it's how most other photography gear channels are doing it, it works and is the viewer's expectation. I love your channel Mark, and I'm sure it will continue to grow. Very happy to see how the new office/studio, gear, experience and improved health are contributing for what I see here with every video. Looking forward to you reaching 50K subscribers soon!

[@markwiemels]

Thanks for sharing this! I always want viewer feedback, as it really helps, and I have made changes based on similar feedback. In this case, this was intentional. I have found that if the lens is a hidden gem, and KZbin has other videos about the lens that have not gotten views (because it's a lesser known lens), the algorithm knows what the video is about and says, "Hey, we already have 10 videos about this lens, and they have very low views, so it must not be very popular, we shouldn't put it on too many people's home pages" So basically, putting those details in the tittle or description, or even saying them in the video, can kill the video before it even gets started.

[@egeidal]

@@markwiemels Thanks for explaining it, Mark. I have no idea how the YT algorithm works, but it makes total sense that it's actually smart enough to "see" the topic/subject and sort accordingly. If that makes your videos easier to find for new viewers, I'm all for it. :)

[@markwiemels]

@egeidal certainly for more well known ones, I will add those details, as people will be searching for them.

[@Daniel_Borisov]

@@markwiemels very interesting. Maybe the lens model just in the thumbnail? Maybe that won't impact SEO? But you know best how to run your channel so I chill now and await your next video. Speaking of which, I would really enjoy one day an astrophotography comparrison with your different camera systems and budgets. A vlog-style video documenting a trip of yours, outside of the studio. Summer is coming in Australia so might be good timing! :) I think you have the Milky Way core visible a little longer than in the north hemisphere.

Is a version for Nikon F Mount available?

Great analogy explaining perspective.

[@garreswe]

9 mm looks super interesting but f5.6 hurts a lot. I'm considering their 12 mm f2.8 instead.

[@GeneLeeRollins]

To use this on a Canon mirrorless (RF mount), one would have to use which adapter and which mount version of this lens?

[@tobisonbrown]

Came here to ask the same question. My optimism is stunted by the crickets.

[@pf4773]

Hi, thanks for your review, and I agree, I had not heard about this lens. It's $600 on the website. My main concern1. absolutely very poor f rating (over 5) which means I can't use it at night or in interiors for wide angle; 2. I'm not clear from the review how this would work with the sony A6700 emount cameras. Thanks again, for alerting us :)

[@IndigoEyePhotography]

A lot of people associate fisheye lenses with distortion, but I'm personally more annoyed by the stretched-out corners of ultra-wide rectilinear lenses. It's just downright nasty esp when there are human subjects near the corners. At least with fisheye lenses that have stereographic projection, people can still have respectable proportions regardless of where you have them in the frame (making them superior for group shots).

[@dougsmit1]

Exactly! Rectilinear and fisheye are both distortions but they just distort in different ways and need to be used for the subjects they both fit. There is no free ride. something gets lost in each.

[@sparkleglitch13]

I struggle with the distorted wide angle images too, it bugs be so much

[@schmoldovia]

more important than millimeter is the angle. with the laowa 9mm f5.6 we get 135°. with the laowa 10-18mm f4.5-5.6 we get 130° with the option to zoom in to 102°. at the low end the wide perspective seem to be pretty close to eachother 130...135°. both are built with 14 elements in 10 groups. i don't know anything about the optical quality... if almost the same i prefer the zoom. a comparision would be interesting. i'm using the sigma 16-28mm which is 107° with the opzion to zoom in to 76°

[@azpropertytours]

Is this a good lens for 360 photography on a canon EOS RP? Thanks.

[@johnbecich9540]

I own Sony a6xxx series cameras. These area APS-C (cropped frame) and I have a great time taking pictures using reduced size-and-weight equipment. You didn't explicitly say it until the end of the video, but this lens accommodates a full-frame-capable camera. As such, I'd be wasting my money and the *entire purpose* of owning this lens, if I put it on my e-mount, crop frame camera. Please affirm or correct me. Thank you.

[@HeuerAndy]

Beautiful lens for Skateboard Photography.

[@Mgtowfreedom]

great explanation re the window and looking out

[@BuildingCenter]

This lens wasn’t even on my radar. Now, it’s in the queue after the Brightin f0.95 50mm for Sony, which I found through another of your videos.

[@BenelliMr]

I fully agree: I have the lens, and I don't use panorama stitching software with all its ghosting problems anymore. And it makes fun too when walking in a city or in nature with this lens only. I got some incredible shots in Cordoba in the Mezquita or on the gorgeous and empty beaches of the Algarve in winter during storm

[@markwiemels]

Thanks for sharing!

[@mynameisben123]

How do you handle the extreme perspective distortion in the edges ?

[@BenelliMr]

@@mynameisben123 DXO is the correct answer for extreme optics corrections and distortions (automatically); else you have to do it manually

[@EdwinvandenAkker]

I am a videographer. I can see this being a great lens for photography. But I wonder how the distortions come across in on video. I think a slight tilt of the camera will have immense perspective impact. That could be cool. But, a stabilizer might be essential, in order to not getting the viewers _"seasick"._

[@xuchenglin6256]

Yeah you just said the exact truth why ultra-wide lenses shines! I always find myself struggling with the exact "I can't reproduce what I see" problem in the early days. Then you heard all those saying "35mm" is the most similar to what you see, or "50mm" gives you the most similar perspective of human eyes. Then you take those pictures home, and found out that none of that represents what you SEE or FEEL at the moment! And you feel confused! Our brain is a huge post-processing machine, the human eye optics may give you a similar FOV (field of view) of 35mm, and a "distortion free" perspective similar to 50mm (no pancake face or big nose like a GoPro), but when all of those comes into your brain, what you actually "SEE" is a post-processed image -- possibly stacked or concatenated, with a huge FOV of about 175 degree, no "distortion" (we define what we see as "no-distortion" baseline), and has a dynamic range of much more than 20 stops.That's why HDR photos when done right it "feels" like that's the "actual" lighting of the scene, but in fact everything is compressed and far from what the real light intensity is. As a shooter in the early days I had some confusion about "what's right". But later on I guess maybe that's just my own "style" emerged, I always try to "recreate" the moment when I took that photo. I defined myself as a "CONTEXT portrait shooter" or "CONTEXT event shooter". I took that as my own standard to guide me through. That includes involving the surroundings, so I know when and where, just like you said in this video. This then technically translates into opt for ultra-wide lens and use smaller apertures like F10 or F8 on a full frame. And taking full advantage of the in-camera DRO (thanks sony! for this to work you have to use JPEG or RAW+JPEG) to "correct" or "recreate" the lighting to match what you actually "see" in your brain. Or do the same thing on RAW to match what's in your memory. I'm no "GIG" shooter just like most of us here. You get quickly bored about the F2.8 70mm big face with a completely blurry background people called "bokeh". You don't go for a dedicated PRO project with all the equipment to one place, do nothing but photography, wait a whole day to just "shoot". That's not the actual situation most people find themselves in. However sadly the voice of photography world is dominated by GIG shooters and PROs, the ultra-wide lens like this seldom make a significant use to them. You don't need an ultra-wide to shoot a wedding. When PROs are in the mountains to shoot for the magazines, they either opt for the better performance lenses because the target usually don't involve such wide angle, or just do a manual panaroma when they need the wide view -- which is sensible, because in this way you can have the best possible image quality, that's what I will do if I have to shoot some mountains for magazine covers. In this case the distortion of ultra-wide becomes a negative thing that makes manual panaroma hard if not impossible at all. Most importantly it's not necessary, you have to do the manual stitching, it doesn't matter it's 3 or 5 photos, the workload is the same. Now a third voice of those is the KZbinrs and Vlogers, unfortunately the lack of AF becomes a deal breaker for almost everybody. You just can't vlog or do any video if you don't have a crew to "pull the focus". You have the hack options like to use a DJI Ronin gimbal with lidar and focus wheel to achieve AF on any MF lens... However how many would actually go this far... Now you see a wave of newer lenses towards these people get made however this particular lens or any lens without AF just won't make it to the list. Even though the 9mm no fisheye is perfect for this job. If you can get touch with the manufacturers, see if they can make an AF version, or tweak something similar to the lidar solutions you found on the DJIs. At 9mm the focus is not critical but still a thing I guess. You don't need super accurate, it will do if it's just ballpark accurate. This the only thing this lens lacks. If it has AF, it will just blow.

[@lit2021]

Good for photography, but for video it's only good for static shots. Otherwise you'll give people a headache because when you pan a rectilinear lens, the sides move much faster than the middle.

[@UberRuthlessOld]

What is the exact name of leica adapter you had in recording?

[@triXsolarflare]

I know you have reviewed the Brightin Star lenses before, how does this lens compare to the Brightin Star 9mm f5.6 ?

[@MattTrevett]

Based on this video I'm going to add this to my "save up for it" list. So thank you very much. Interested in having an extremely wide non-fisheye lens and this will do the trick. Wide angle is hard. Probably harder than telephoto. And that's why it's worth doing.

[@markwiemels]

Yes, super wide is work, but when you pull it off the results are great.

[@rizoa4625]

How would you compare this to their 9mm f/2.8 Zero-D lens?

[@markwiemels]

One is APS-C, the other is full frame, so I would buy based on your sensor size.

[@MrArdytube]

Interesting (for me)…. The wrap around perception you mention is constructed in the brain in a manner similar to constructing 3d perception. The brain amalgamates the images collected from glancing around into a a combined gestalt perception of reality…. A sense of place

[@markwiemels]

[@artistjoh]

I've had the Voitländer 10mm f5.6 for Sony FE which goes to 130° hyper-wide for many years now. This Laowa goes to 135° which is a visible difference, but not such a large difference, that they are very similar in terms of advantages and difficulties. Done well, these lenses make fabulous images, but it is equally frustrating when neither sky nor foreground are exciting. This Laowa seems to be sharper in the far corners, but the Voigtländer is much better with flare. This is important to me because with such a wide angle, it is common to get the sun in the frame. It always amazes me when I hear people say that 24mm is too wide for them, but for those of us who love going wide, these hyper-wides are brilliant. I remember being in Arches National Park in Utah with a Canon 11-24mm f4 (which goes to 122°) and wishing I had the Sony and the 10mm with me because there was one shot where I couldn't get the entire rock formation into the frame. The Voigt or this Laowa would have been ideal on that day.

[@AllCarsUnited]

Agreed

[@realnikonlover6207]

I am curious how this would work for astrophotography. I have all the Nikon lenses except a good wide angle prime. I want to do some astro shots but love the native Nikon glass. Willing to pay more for better quality. Nikon for me.

[@chakwong]

Could panoramic mode accomplish the same wide vision…if the subjects don’t move?

[@markwiemels]

The answer is a bit complicated. No, but sort of. You can't simulate the 9mm focal length with panorama, but you could get more of the scene in to help overcome the tighter focal length.

[@hansdegebruiker1968]

Can you mount it and did you try it on a Canaon M50?

[@Al.j.Vasquez]

Your analogy to explain how Milimeters work is similar to mine, but i use a sheet of paper with a cutoff the size of a given sensor, and ask the person to place their eye X millimeters away from the window made in the sheet of paper, so a 250mm lens means they will hold the paper 25cm away from their eye, perceiving very little width and height but ofc, imagine that small frame but big.

[@HumbertoAbed]

I'm thinking in getting the Laowa 9mm 2.8 ZD for my M6. Is this one (the one on this video) better than that one? because this one comes in RF and I have a R6. So, what would you do? I need a wide angle for my M6. Already have a 16mm for the R6. Both lenses look very attractive but I can only afford one

[@paulm8157]

Compelling review. Considering wider field of view and potentially more light and dark areas of the image, what metering mode would be best? Am thinking center weighted or spot might not be optimal.

[@markwiemels]

I just look at the the screen and use exposure compensation. I think I use using center weighted or smart metering, but full frame might be better.

[@sameershah6871]

There is the sigma 8-16 .. rectilinear…. It’s amazing 🎉

[@markwiemels]

Yes, I have seen that one! I think it's a crop lens, so not quite as wide as 9mm on Full Frame.

[@actionimagesphotography]

If it's rectilinear why aren't the edge lines straight? It's not bowed, but it certainly sends those straight lines out wide.

[@athmaid]

I never quite understood that either

[@dougsmit1]

Rectilinear lines are only straight if the camera is perfectly level. Point it up or down and you get trapazoids where you wanted rectangles. With a 9mm, one degree up would be noticeable.

[@actionimagesphotography]

@@dougsmit1 I hear what you're saying but my even my 10mm Sigma seams to produce way less of this look that this lens.

[@markwiemels]

Yep, this is how this super wide FOV gets stretched to be projected on the sensor. It's clearly a form of distortion, just not barrel or fish eye. I talk about this in the video, and being careful about the edges of your frame.
