Laowa Magic Shift Converter Canon EF to Nikon Z

Laowa Magic Shift Converter (Canon EF Lens to Nikon Z Camera) LWAMSCNIKZEOS

The Laowa Magic Shift Converter (MSC) adapts Canon EF lenses to full-frame Nikon Z mirrorless cameras and turns them into a shift lens with ±10 mm of movement. It keeps vertical lines straight and avoids converging lines, which is especially useful in architecture and interior photography. It is optimised for the Laowa 12mm f/2.8 Zero-D but can also be used with other lenses, including those of other brands (optical performance may vary from lens to lens).

Taking advantage of the short flange distance of mirrorless cameras, its patented 5-element optical system increases the image circle of the 12mm f/2.8 Zero-D from 43.2 mm to 60 mm and turns it into a 17mm f/4 with ±10 mm shift, while keeping its near-zero distortion. The camera can be rotated through 360° to switch quickly between portrait and landscape or change the shift direction.
