Venus Optics Laowa 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6

Lens Description: This lens is currently the widest zoom lens available for Sony full frame E-mount mirrorless cameras. Designed primarily for travel photography, we have managed to compress the size to the smallest in its class, less than 9.1 cm (3.6 in.) long and only 496 g (1.1 lb.). The 130° (10mm) to 102° (18mm) angle of view provides flexibility for photographers to compose landscape or architecture photos with ease. The aperture blade system is carefully designed to produce the best sun-star renderings among all UWA lenses on the market.

Photography Life Review Summary: Overall, I am happy to see Laowa bringing out lenses for the Nikon Z mount, which desperately needs more lens options. While the Laowa 10-18mm might not be an optically superb lens, it is significantly wider and cheaper than Nikon's Z 14-30mm f/4 S lens (which also has its share of problems). I really hope that Laowa does not stop with the 10-18mm and starts porting its other lenses for the Z mount. I also hope that Laowa's engineers find a way to communicate basic EXIF information to Nikon Z cameras. That might take some time and effort, but I am sure it will pay off in the long run...
