Be captivated by the Laowa 65mm f/ 2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO Lens, a pioneering product from Venus Optics, designed specifically for mirrorless camera systems. This innovative lens stands alone in the market, capable of producing 2X life-size images, making it a game-changer for macro photography. The Laowa 65mm f/ 2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO Lens is not just for full-frame cameras but is also the first macro lens Venus Optics has designed for APS-C cameras. Its unique ability to magnify up to 2X the life-size sets it apart from competitors, who typically only offer 1.5X magnification.
This lens is not just about magnification; it also offers a minimum focusing distance of 6.7" (17cm), allowing it to focus from infinity to 2X magnification. This wide range of magnification makes it an ideal choice for capturing all kinds of macro photography scenarios, from the tiniest insects to vibrant plants of varying sizes. The Laowa 65mm f/ 2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO Lens delivers outstanding sharpness, color, and clarity. Optimized for APS-C systems, the images produced are stunning in detail and contrast from center to corner, even when using a wide-open aperture.
This professional prime lens delivers exceptional resolution and sharpness, making it a valuable addition to any photographer's kit. Despite its advanced features, the Laowa 65mm f/ 2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO Lens is remarkably light and compact, weighing just 11.8 oz (335g). Its small lens barrel design allows for easy focus adjustment, and its internal focus design maintains the overall lens length during use. The lens's apochromatic optical design incorporates three extra-low dispersion glasses to minimize chromatic aberrations across the frame. This design, inherited from the Laowa 100mm f/ 2.8 2X macro, effectively eliminates both lateral and longitudinal chromatic aberrations, making chromatic aberration almost invisible to the naked eye, both in-focus and out-of-focus.
In addition to its superior performance, this lens comes bundled with a ProOptic 52mm filter kit, cleaning kit, lens cap tether, and lens cleaner, making it a comprehensive package for both professional and leisure photographers. Whether you're a macro lover traveling for ecological photography or a professional seeking the perfect portrait lens, the Laowa 65mm f/ 2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO Lens is a versatile and valuable addition to your photography gear.
