  • Capture extreme detail at 2x magnification from 20.5 cm minimum focus
  • Edge-to-edge sharpness from 13 elements in 10 groups with 3 ED elements
  • Smooth background separation via 13-blade aperture design
  • Shoot macro and portraits with versatile 90 mm focal length
  • Apochromatic correction suppresses colour fringing at high magnification

2x Magnification Macro Lens

The Venus Optics Laowa 90mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO is a manual-focus prime lens built for Canon RF-mount mirrorless cameras. Its optical design reaches a 2:1 reproduction ratio, allowing subjects to appear twice life-size on the sensor. The 90mm focal length provides a comfortable working distance of 20.5cm at maximum magnification. This makes it a dedicated tool for photographers who need extreme close-up capability.

Suited for Detail Work, Not for Autofocus Users

This lens suits product photographers, scientific documentarians and natural-history shooters who require high magnification with apochromatic correction. The 13-element, 10-group formula includes three extra-low dispersion elements to suppress colour fringing. A 13-blade aperture creates smooth background rendition. Buyers who rely on autofocus, electronic aperture control or image stabilisation should look elsewhere, as the lens operates purely mechanically.

2:1 Maximum Magnification Decides Fit

The single specification that determines whether this is the right part is the 2x maximum magnification ratio. Standard macro lenses stop at 1x, so this optic doubles the subject size at its closest focus. If your work demands reproduction ratios greater than life-size, the 2x capability justifies the manual workflow. If 1x is sufficient, a conventional autofocus macro will be more convenient.

Questions about this item

How does 2× magnification change the working distance when I am shooting close-ups?

At 2× magnification the minimum focusing distance is 20.5 cm from the subject, giving a short working distance for detailed macro work.

What does the Canon RF mount mean for aperture control and focus operation?

The RF mount provides full electronic communication, so aperture is set from the camera body and autofocus is not available because this lens is manual-focus only.

What physical space does the 90 mm f/2.8 design need in a bag or on a tripod?

The lens uses a 13-element optical formula in a compact barrel designed for mirrorless flange distance, keeping length and weight low for a 90 mm macro.
