Manufacturer description
With a maximum 2x magnification, this lens enlarges the smallest details of your subject, revealing intricate features that are hard to distinguish with the naked eye. It delivers a unique close-up impact and offers an extraordinary visual experience.
It captures more light and detail, with higher dynamic range for more refined, natural colors and clearer image quality. Every detail is vividly rendered, allowing your vision to transcend the ordinary and dive into the intricate, magnificent universe of the small.
The use of high-quality special elements, including 2 ED elements and 2 high-refractive elements, effectively suppresses chromatic aberration, delivering exceptional image clarity and accurate color reproduction. It also reduces edge distortion and aberrations. Whether it's the dew on a petal or the intricate texture of an insect's wings, every fine detail is vividly rendered.
With a 0.17m minimum focusing distance, you can get closer to small subjects, magnifying details for better close-up shots. By moving closer to the subject, you can create unique perspectives and compositional effects, making the image more vivid and engaging. This brings us into a microcosm filled with wonders and discoveries.
The F2.8 large aperture, combined with the full-frame design, enhances the background blur effect, making the subject stand out prominently. The beautiful bokeh highlights the main subject, adding depth and an artistic feel to the image, creating impressive photos with a layered immersive quality.
This lens is built with high-quality materials and precise manufacturing techniques, ensuring stability and durability. It excels in delivering outstanding performance in detail, depth of field, and color reproduction.
The compact optical design not only delivers high-quality macro images but also effectively reduces the size of the lens. Weighing only 550g, it provides greater flexibility, making it easy to capture the hidden micro wonders of everyday life.
LENS-DB: "Only" 550g? That's quite a significant weight. However, macro photography is usually done on a tripod, so in this case the weight can be neglected.
A macro lens excels at magnifying tiny details, making it perfect for capturing subjects like flowers, plants, insects, and still life. The F2.8 large aperture provides a natural bokeh effect, allowing the lens to perform just as well in portrait photography.
