Explore the Venus Laowa 85mm f/5.6 Leica M lens for stunning macro shots. Exceptional image quality, 2x magnification. Order yours today!

How does the Laowa 85mm f/5.6 Ultra Macro APO Lens for Leica M stand out  This lens is a mirrorless-designed macro lens that offers a 28.55-degree angle of view for full-frame cameras. Notably, it is the smallest 2x macro lens available in the market, weighing in at a mere 289g (Leica M mount without caps and hood). This makes it incredibly portable and convenient for macro photographers who need to carry their equipment into the field.The lens features an apochromatic (APO) design, which minimizes chromatic aberration at both 'in-focus' and 'out-of-focus' areas. This ensures that your images are sharp, clear, and free from color fringing, reducing the need for time-consuming post-production edits.The Laowa 85mm f/5.6 Ultra Macro APO Lens is capable of focusing from 2:1 magnification to infinity, making it a versatile choice for both macro and portrait photography. With its ability to focus up to 2x magnification and a minimum focusing distance of just 6.4" (16.3cm), you can capture intricate details of your subjects with ease.One of the standout features of this lens is its internal focusing design. This prevents the lens from colliding with your subject and keeps dust and debris from entering the lens, ensuring your equipment stays clean and your images remain pristine.Whether you're a macro photographer looking for a lightweight, high-performance lens, or a portrait photographer seeking a versatile lens with excellent image quality, the Laowa 85mm f/5.6 Ultra Macro APO Lens for Leica M is a superb choice.

The lens is extremely small which is a huge plus.  The lens is manual only so there is a learning curve if you are not experienced.  I have been able to take some sharp images with this lens but it is not as sharp as my Sony G lens. I look forward to taking this lens on my future travels.

Good things come in small packages

This 85mm f/5.6 macro lens is an incredible value. It is compact and light in form factor, while still maintaining excellent optics. Highly recommended.
