Fun fact II: "Loawa" (老哇)  apparently means raven? I also have seen it translated into old frog. Hmm..

You didn't read Laowa 9mmf2.8 zero D review ????

""Laowa" - what does that actually mean? Any guesses? In Chinese, it means "(Old) Frog". Why is that? The owner of Laowa (who is also one of the designers) likes the fantasy of a frog looking into the blue sky as his dreamland. Hard to understand from a western perspective but then why not? It may also give you a hint where the name of the Laowa's lens coating - FEC or Frog Eye Coating - is coming from." Cool Cool
