Laowa Venus Optics 58mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO for L-mount – photographic lens

Laowa Venus Optics 58mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO for L-mount – photographic lens is a macro lens designed for mirrorless, with a field angle of 40.9° on full frame sensors.
It features an apochromatic (APO) design to minimise chromatic aberration both in and out of focus.
Like many other Laowa macro lenses, this lens offers a maximum magnification of 2X while maintaining the ability to focus at infinity, making it ideal not only for macro photography but also for portraiture.
It features 3 ultra-low dispersion (ED) elements and 3 ultra-high refractive index elements that produce images of extraordinary sharpness.
It offers a maximum magnification of 2X while maintaining the ability to focus endlessly, for greater flexibility in subject selection. From the tiny ant to the large dragonfly, you can capture everything with a single lens. With 2X magnification, you can capture more details of objects.
The ability to focus to infinity, the focal length of 58 mm (40.9° AoV) and the f/2.8 aperture allow the lens to be used as more than just a macro lens. It can also be used for portraits, product photography or as a walking lens.
The lens is designed to suppress longitudinal and lateral chromatic aberration in both in-focus and out-of-focus areas. Purple fringing and ghosting are controlled to a minimum throughout the entire aperture range. The apochromatic design significantly reduces post-editing times, especially in macro photography.
Specially designed for mirrorless systems, the lens contains 3 ED elements and 3 ultra-high refractive index elements. The short flange distance not only improves image sharpness, but also makes the lens more compact. This lens offers a completely new macro shooting experience. Greater depth, better focus control.
The 58 mm offers a greater depth of field than other lenses with longer focal lengths. It is possible to achieve a greater area of focus on the subject at the same aperture. This allows for greater control in creating unique visual narratives.
The lens is equipped with 13 aperture blades, creating a striking and pleasing bokeh.
