Laowa's unique 2x macro lens — the 100mm with apochromatic correction for extreme close-up work.

The Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO is a unique macro lens from Venus Optics that achieves 2:1 magnification — twice life-size — without extension tubes or accessories. The APO (apochromatic) designation indicates exceptional chromatic aberration correction at macro distances, where colour fringing is typically most problematic. It fills a niche no major manufacturer addresses.

Optical performance at macro distances is excellent. The APO design virtually eliminates chromatic aberration even at extreme magnifications. Sharpness is outstanding at close range. The 2:1 maximum magnification reveals details invisible at standard 1:1 macro. At portrait distances, the lens is sharp with pleasant rendering too.

Canon EF mount in this listing — also available in Nikon F, Sony FE, Pentax K, and other mounts. Filter thread is 67mm. Weight is approximately 638 grams. Build quality is solid metal construction. Manual focus only — no autofocus. The focus throw is very long, allowing precise focus adjustments essential for high-magnification work.

Available on the used market at moderate prices. Check for smooth focus ring operation and clean optics. The manual-focus-only design is expected at this magnification level where AF cannot be reliable. An outstanding specialist macro lens — the 2:1 magnification and APO correction make it the benchmark for extreme close-up work.
