World’s Widest Shift Lens
15mm f/4.5 Shift is the widest shift lens for full-frame camera. The angle of view is 110 degrees, and it has a huge ⌀ 65mm image circle. It is even wider than the currently widest shift lens from Canon , TS-E 17mm f/4L Tilt-
Shift Lens. The wider perspective offers great deal of flexibility for photographers to capture architecture and interior shots when space is limited (Cannot stand back further).

±11mm Shift Amount
15mm f/4.5 Zero-D Shift has ±11mm shift amount for photographers to take control of the perspective or expand the angle of view (by stitching multiple images).

Large Image Circle
The gigantic image circle not only allows the lens to shift by +/- 8mm in full frame cameras, it can also be used on medium format cameras (e.g. Fujifilm GFX / Hasselblad X1D) The max possible shift for full frame cameras vertically is ±11mm for full frame camera and ±8mm for medium format camera. This is also currently the World’s Widest lens covering Fujifilm GFX sensor with no vignetting. The Canon 17mm f/4 TS-E is very popular among GFX community and we xpect our 15mm will follow the same.
