From the editor
A completely redesigned version of the 60mm F/2.8 macro lens. In fact, it is a totally new lens, since both the optical formula and the barrel design are radically different from the previous one. The magnification ratio remained the same at 1:1, but the lens received internal focusing. The inclusion of an ED element in the optical formula helps to better correct chromatic aberrations, so color fringing will be less noticeable when shooting wide open. The closest focusing distance was reduced to 17.5cm. In fact, this was not a change for the better, since the longer the closest focusing distance, the more convenient it is to photograph living subjects (for example, insects), since when the front of the barrel is close to the creature, it can cast a shadow and frighten it. The weight has been reduced by 211g, making the lens more portable if you want to shoot not only macro but also portraits.
