Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO APS-C Lens for Sony E Summary
With a range of Sony crop sensor cameras available third party lens manufacturers release compatible offerings like this 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO Lens from Laowa. This close-up lens stands out thanks to its 2:1 double life size macro capabilities along with an Apochromatic optical design (APO). This APO design renders low levels of colour fringing and reduces spherical aberrations achieving high quality results. An effective focal length of around 100mm (full frame format) provides a classic short telephoto prime lens ideal for extreme close-ups with a minimum focus distance of just 17cm. Despite these advanced optics Sony camera users get a lens which weighs just 335g, is 100mm long and accepts cost effective 52mm filters.

The Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO Lens has an internal focus mechanism with manual focus only for Sony users. MF is often preferred for close-up work as it allows the user to accurately choose the exact point of focus on their subject. Whether you shoot macro flowers, insects or any other subjects a series of lens barrel markings ensure you can accurately gauge focus and depth of field.
