LAOWA 65MM F2.8 - 2X ULTRA MACRO FOR NIKON Z

The Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2X macro APO is the first macro lens that Venus Optics has designed for systems other than full-frame cameras. This is the only macro lens on the market that can produce 2X life-size images and is specially designed for mirrorless cameras. The new 65mm is remarkably light and compact, making it ideal for macro photography, everyday stills, portraits, and more.

The 65mm f/2.8 2X macro APO is the first macro lens that Venus Optics has designed for APS-C cameras. Most competitors magnify up to 1.5X at most, while the Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2X macro provides a greater magnification effect and creates up to 2X life-size images.

The lens offers a maximum magnification ratio of 2:1 along with a minimum focusing distance of 6.7" (17 cm). Unlike traditional macro lenses, this 65mm lens can focus from infinity to 2X magnification, making it an ideal choice for tackling all kinds of macro photography scenarios. The wide magnification range is essential for shooting insects and plants of different sizes.

Optimized for APS-C systems, the resulting images offer impressive detail and contrast from center to corner, even when using a wide aperture. This professional prime lens offers exceptional resolution and sharpness.

Weighing 335g, this remarkably light, compact, and versatile lens serves as an exceptional complement to APS-C cameras. The small lens barrel allows the user to hold the camera and adjust focus with ease. Additionally, the internal focusing design maintains the total lens length during use. It is a great tool for both leisure and professional photography. Due to its lightness and compactness, macro enthusiasts will find it a great companion for ecological photography while traveling.

The optical design of the Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2X macro incorporates 3 extra-low dispersion glasses to minimize chromatic aberrations throughout the frame. The lens has inherited the excellent APO design of the Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2X macro and can eliminate both lateral and longitudinal chromatic aberrations in the frame, meaning that chromatic aberration in both the "focused" and "defocused" areas is almost invisible to the eyes.
