Laowa Sword Macro Primes
The Laowa Sword Macro Cine series is a groundbreaking collection of six full-frame macro cine prime lenses from Venus Optics. Designed to be a comprehensive set for cinematographers, these lenses combine high magnification capabilities with a lightweight, compact form factor suitable for everything from handheld gimbal work to high-end studio setups.
- Full-Frame Coverage: All lenses cover a 43.2mm image circle, making them compatible with large-format sensors like those on the Sony Venice 2, ARRI ALEXA Mini LF, and Fujinon GFX Eterena 55.
- High Magnification: Unlike many standard cine lenses, select models (60mm and 100mm) offer 2:1 magnification, allowing for extreme close-up details.
- Cine-Standard Design: Features include industry-standard 0.8 MOD gears for focus and iris, consistent front diameters and dual imperial/metric focus scales.
- Optical Performance: Engineered for exceptional sharpness and superior control of chromatic aberration (CA) to prevent color fringing in high-detail macro shots.
