I bought this as my first lense. Man, the shots you got with it are amazing! I'm trying to figure out how you got your full subject in focus like you did. I'm loving this lense for portraits too.
I had the Laowa, it broke 10 months in with VERY little studio only use. Trying to get warranty work was impossible, I gave up. I bought a few others, adapted and native, ended up with the Sony and stuck with it. The 90G is by far the best because it has stabilisation that works better than using IBIS only, it works with the focus stacking in some Sony bodies, it has AF and it produced better images than all other options I tried (a half dozen of them). I think it's built better also. Great value lens.
Thats so amazing. Beautiful examples. What white balance and saturation settings or profile did you use? How did you get the chrome yellow flower colour in the sunlight? Did you acquire it in the post editing? Because this lens is giving off yellow, like brownish to me.
What great sharpness, detail and color in your stellar photos and video! Just incredible! Thanks for creating this video! PS. Is that an Ori painting on the wall?
hey Tim, yes … however, extension tubes work best at around 35 to 50mm. Longer focal ranges result in less magnification. If you only are interested in photos, the Laowa 90mm is one heck of a value and has 2 to 1 magnification
I'm disappointed with the macro capabilities of my GM zoom lenses. I know they're not made for that, but i don't shoot enough macro to buy a special lens for it.
Hey Brian, thanks for this excellent video I would like to ask, I just bought the lens, however not know which flash to use? My camera is an a6400. Thanks
For photography, the Laowa is great. Half the price, twice the magnification. That said, the Sony is a better all around macro lens. Especially if you want to use it for video too. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sDarejFK4m4.html
It’s complicated, but that’s certainly an option. For me, I have never used cat browse to this point. Adding another step to an already taxing editing work flow is not something I am interested in. Furthermore, having OSS in the lens means that real time filming is smoother. This is also really nice when shooting photos. OSS makes composition is a bit easier …
@@Doogsay no laowa lenses have stabilisation. I'm not even sure the GOOD third parties, sigma and Tamron, have them. It's how Sony maintains a market while charging more per lens.
