1x Laowa 24mm F14 2x Macro Probe Lens - Canon EF
1x Lens case
The Laowa Probe is the worlds first consumer lens which focuses 2:1 macro to infinity with a “bug eye” perspective. The wide angle design offers increased depth of field, useful when at very close distances, producing background details greater than conventional telephoto macro lenses.
Macro lenses in the market tend to have a long focal length (from 60mm to 120mm) and the subject fills most of the frame, isolating it from the surrounding environment. The Laowa 24mm allows exceptionally close focus to the subject of 2cm @ 2:1 life-size reproduction, showing a great amount of detail and texture. But at the same time, you can enjoy a compelling wide angle ‘Bug Eye’ view (84.1 degree field of view) so that more background details can then be included in the shots. You can easily create a very informative and stunning macro bug-eye perspective that no other lens can do. The fact that it can focus really close to the subject enables a lot of shooting possibility.
The front barrel of the lens is waterproof with an LED ring light mounted at the lens tip. This enables the lens front to be underwater whilst operating the camera out of the water, for shots in pools, streams, tanks, and opens up a wealth of creative possibilities like no other lens. The long tubular barrel, with a small lens tip, enables getting into tight spaces, and minimises disturbance of the surrounding environment. It also allows you to keep a safer distance when photographing dangerous reptiles, or get into areas that would be inaccessible with a standard macro lens kit.
This lens opens up possibilities unattainable with other lenses with not only animals, but also product photography and videography. Getting in close to subjects, under, over and between objects, through tunnels and tubes, under water, - explore creative possibilities and new perspectives.
The optics are constructed from 27 individual lens elements arranged in 19 groups, with 7 aperture blades. It is 408mm long, despite it’s length it weighs less than 500g.
