Described as “weird but genius” the Laowa 24mm f/14 Probe from Venus Optics is a truly unique lens designed for close-up shooting. Distinguished by its long slender lens barrel this macro lens provides a 2:1 maximum magnification with a 1.5′ minimum focusing distance and a close 0.8″ minimum working distance. Even with such a close working distance the lens measures 1.3′ long placing you at a comfortable distance to photograph nearby subjects. Also as a wide-angle lens greater depth of field is afforded when compared to traditional telephoto macro lenses which allows for greater detail in the background with less subject isolation.
