The Laowa 24mm f/14 Probe Lens for Sony E-mount cameras is a one-of-a-kind macro lens, designed to deliver unparalleled close-up performance. This lens offers an impressive 2:1 maximum magnification, allowing you to capture life-sized details with a 1.5-foot minimum focusing distance and a close 0.8-inch working distance. Despite its extremely close working distance, the long, slender barrel design enables you to photograph subjects at a comfortable distance, even when working with delicate or sensitive subjects.

As a wide-angle lens, the 24mm focal length provides a greater depth of field than traditional telephoto macro lenses, ensuring more background detail and reducing subject isolation. This makes it perfect for both photography and videography, offering an expansive view of the surrounding environment while maintaining sharp focus on the subject.

The optical design of the lens includes two extra-low dispersion elements and one extra-refractive index element, reducing chromatic and spherical aberrations for improved clarity, color accuracy, and sharpness. The built-in LED ring light, powered by a micro-USB port, ensures easier focusing at close distances, and its slim 0.8-inch front diameter makes it easier to illuminate subjects directly from the front.

The waterproof front of the lens allows for shooting in harsh environments, such as underwater or in dusty conditions, while the manual focus feature lets you focus from 1.5 feet to infinity. The seven-blade diaphragm produces a pleasing, smooth bokeh, making it perfect for creative close-up shots.

This lens is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras but is also compatible with APS-C models, offering a 36mm equivalent focal length.
