About Venus 60mm f/2.8

While exploring the world of macro photography, the Laowa 60mm f/2.8 2x Ultra-Macro Lens for Nikon F stands out as a remarkable tool for photographers who demand versatility and exceptional image quality. As the world's first 2:1 macro lens capable of achieving infinity focus, this lens is a game-changer for both professional and hobbyist photographers.

With its impressive magnification range from 0.1x to 2x, the Laowa 60mm f/2.8 lens is perfectly suited for a diverse array of macro photography situations. Whether capturing the intricate details of insects or the delicate textures of botanical subjects, this lens ensures that photographers can adapt to various subject sizes without the need for additional extension tubes.

Beyond its macro capabilities, the lens boasts a 60mm focal length, making it an excellent choice for standard portrait photography. The all-in-one design of this manual focus, manual aperture lens allows for seamless transitions between close-up macro work and other photographic styles, such as portraits or capturing distant subjects.

The optical construction of the Laowa 60mm f/2.8 lens, featuring 9 elements in 7 groups, is engineered to deliver superior image quality and color fidelity. The design includes two major moving lens groups that effectively minimize barrel distortion, ensuring that your images are sharp and true to life.

When focusing on distant subjects, the lens barrel ingeniously acts as a shade for the front lens element, reducing the potential for lens flare and maintaining image clarity. The 14-blade aperture creates a nearly circular diaphragm, allowing photographers to achieve a beautifully smooth, creamy bokeh effect in their shallow depth of field shots.

Constructed with a robust metal barrel, this lens is built to withstand the rigors of frequent use, ensuring durability and longevity. Included with the lens are a protective lens pouch and a filter to enhance your shooting experience.

While the Laowa 60mm f/2.8 lens is designed primarily for APS-C format cameras, it can also be utilized on Full Frame cameras, with a slight vignetting effect noticeable when shooting at infinity. However, when delving into macro photography, vignetting is not an issue, allowing for clear and undistorted images up to 2 times life-size.

Whether you're a botanist requiring precision for scientific publications, an enthusiast looking to elevate your macro compositions, or a photographer seeking a versatile lens for various shooting conditions, the Laowa 60mm f/2.8 2x Ultra-Macro Lens for Nikon F is a stellar addition to your photographic arsenal.
