Laowa's tilt-shift macro for Fujifilm GFX — the 100mm for medium format product and architecture work.
The Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO Tilt-Shift is a remarkable specialist lens for the Fujifilm GFX medium format system. It combines 2x macro magnification, apochromatic correction, and tilt-shift movements in a single lens — a specification available from no other manufacturer for any medium format system. Designed for product, architecture, and scientific photography.
Optical performance benefits from APO correction at macro distances. The 2x magnification on a medium format sensor reveals extraordinary detail. The tilt function enables Scheimpflug-principle focus plane control — invaluable for product photography where selective focus or extreme depth of field is needed. Shift corrects converging verticals for architecture.
