Laowa 10mm f/2.8 Zero-D FF camera type?

[Isaac H. E.]

Hello,
Does any one know what camera type (Frame, Equidistant Fisheye, Equisolid Fisheye) for a Laowa 10mm f/2.8 Zero Distortion Full Frame? In this case it a Ultra Wide Angle (+130 degrees of FOV) but it's rectilinear (no fisheye/barrel distortion).

Basically I would like to know if it a good idea to purchase this lens taking into consideration the manual entry:

• Avoid ultra-wide angle and fisheye lenses. The distortion of the lenses used to capture the photos should be well simulated with the camera model used in the software. Generally, Brown's distortion model implemented in Metashape works well for frame cameras. However, since fisheye and ultra-wide angle lenses are poorly simulated by the mentioned distortion model, it is crucial to choose the proper camera type in the Camera Calibration dialog prior to processing such data - the software will switch to the appropriate distortion model.

Thanks in advance
Isaac

Hello Isaac,

This image doesn't look like having fisheye distortions, in such case Frame sensor type should be used.
