LAOWA 58mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO for Canon RF
With the LAOWA 58mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO, LAOWA presents another addition to the 2:1 macro lens range for mirrorless full-frame cameras. The 14 lens elements in 10 groups and the apochromatic correction (APO) ensure the highest imaging performance with the lowest chromatic aberration in the sharpness and blur plane.
The image is razor-sharp from close to infinity. Furthermore, the circularly closing aperture f/2.8 - f/22 with 13 aperture blades ensures a wonderfully soft bokeh. The angle of view is 40.9 degrees.
With a 58mm focal length, crystal-clear sharpness and beautiful bokeh, this lens is not only an excellent 2:1 macro lens that can be focused down to 18.5cm, but also ideal for portrait and product photography.
Thanks to its shorter focal length, this lens is also very suitable for reproduction photography.
Because the lens has a shorter focal length than some other macro lenses on the market, it has a greater depth of field than a light telephoto macro lens. This means that more of the background is shown at the same aperture. This is an advantage when the photographer wants to tell a clearer visual story.
Three ultra-high refractive index lenses and three ultra-low dispersion (ED) lenses reduce chromatic aberration as well as optical distortion and ghosting to an absolute minimum. This design also ensures excellent sharpness right into the corners of the image.
The internal focusing prevents accidental contact between the lens and the subject. It also protects against dust, for example.
Focusing and aperture adjustment are manual.
