Are you a macro photography enthusiast looking for a lens that offers superior performance and versatility The Laowa 100mm f/ 2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO Lens for Canon EF is a game-changer in the world of macro photography. Building on the success of the Laowa 60mm f/ 2.8 2:1 Macro, this lens is the second addition to the Laowa 2:1 macro lineup, offering a wider magnification range that allows you to capture subjects of any size with ease. Unlike other 100mm macro lenses on the market that only achieve 1:1 (life-size) or smaller magnification, the Laowa 100mm f/ 2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO Lens boasts a 2:1 magnification, making it ideal for capturing smaller subjects.
This lens can cover a full-frame sensor and focus from 2:1 magnification to infinity, making it a favorite among macro photographers. One of the standout features of this lens is its apochromatic (APO) characteristic, which ensures that chromatic aberration is virtually invisible. Chromatic aberration, a common issue in optics design, can often ruin an otherwise perfect image. However, the Laowa 100mm lens delivers exceptional performance in suppressing chromatic aberration, both in the "in-focus" and "out-of-focus" areas, ensuring your subject isn't marred by unwanted color fringing. But this lens isn't just for macro photography.
The Laowa 100mm f/ 2.8 is also an excellent portrait lens when focused to infinity. Its 12 elements in 10 groups optics design delivers crystal clear sharpness in both macro and infinity distances. The bright f/ 2.8 and circular aperture render softly diffused bokeh, beautifully isolating your subject from its background. The lens features an internal focusing structure that doesn't extend when the focus is changed, and a multilayer coating has been applied to reduce lens flare and ghosting for increased contrast. The Canon version of the Laowa 100mm f/ 2.8 2:1 Macro lens is integrated with a CPU chip and aperture motor, allowing photographers to control the aperture and exposure through the camera itself and record the EXIF data into the photos.
A focus indicator is also shown in the camera to assist with focusing. This bundle also includes a Hoya 67mm Filter Kit II, a tripod collar, lens cleaner, cleaning kit, and cleaning cloth, providing you with all the essentials you need for your photography sessions. With the Laowa 100mm f/ 2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO Lens for Canon EF, you're not just getting a lens, but a complete package that will enhance your photography experience.
