Laowa 10mm f/4 Cookie 10mm
The 10mm focal length on APS-C delivers a 109.3-degree rectilinear view in a pancake body just 25mm long and 130g, making it the widest lens of its kind. Its 12-element optical design with 4 ED glasses maintains sharpness and minimal distortion, while the durable all-metal construction withstands daily use. This manual-focus prime is best for street and travel photographers who prioritize pocketable ultrawide perspectives and don't mind forgoing autofocus and weather sealing.
