Laowa 12mm Zero-D f/2.8 reviewed

[Vieri]

For my Fine Art Landscape work, I find ultra-wide-angle lenses to be wonderful creative tools because of the different “view of the world” they provide: see in this Venus Optics Laowa 12mm f/2.8 Zero-D in-depth review my thoughts about this relatively new and promising addition to the ultra-wide pool, and about its place in a Fine Art Landscape photographer’s bag.

While I reviewed it adapted for my Leica SL, the lens is available in Nikon mount as well, so I thought it might be relevant:

Thank you for reading, best regards,

Have you had the chance to try this lens with any nightscapes? In particular, I was wondering about coma and edge fall-off when shooting the Milky Way and/or star trails.
