Venus Optics announced the 90m f/2.8 2X Ultra-Macro APO lens specially designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras. It is the eighth addition to Laowa’s 2:1 magnification macro lens lineup. The new 90mm lens not only inherited the 2:1 magnification to infinity ability and APO design but also appears much smaller in size.

Highlights:

  • 2x magnification
  • Apochromat APO design
  • Specifically designed for mirrorless camera
  • Much smaller than equivalents
  • Outstanding image sharpness
  • Smooth bokeh
  • Internal focusing

The lens magnification ranges from 0.1X to 2X, allowing photographers to capture objects of different sizes conveniently without changing the lens, the company said. The extended magnification range and focus to infinity provide more flexibility in framing the image. You can excel in a wide range of settings with this lens from macro to portrait photography.

Laowa 90mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO is currently available for a U.S. price for 90mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO is USD499 for all mounts.  Pricing varies in different countries.
