"Weird but genius" is how the Laowa 24mm f/14 probe lens from Venus Optics is often described. This is the world’s first consumer lens which focuses 2:1 macro to infinity with a "bug eye" perspective. It has a built-in LED ring light to assist with close focusing. Most macro lenses fill the subject in the entire frame, missing the perspective of the surrounding environment; The Laowa 24mm outguns traditional lenses with its ability of focusing exceptionally close to the subject of 2cm @ 2:1 life-size reproduction, enabling extraordinary details and texture. It is practically distortion free, and is versatile in its application in macro, product photography & even videography
