Nice video again! Very interesting lens. Seems there is some movement in the Macro lens department, especially as the Astrhori 120mm is out now as well. TTartisan and especially Astrhori seem to get more and more into what was mostly Laowas playground. As I shoot APS-C (for Macro also bit easier depth of field), I prefer the Laowa 65mm f2.8, little brother of the Laowa 100mm f2.8, for its more compact size but still high image quality. This or the heavy Astrhori 120mm get even more front-heavy on a small Sony APS-C camera. Also the wobbling might be a dealbreaker when using it for stacking on a rail...
At 2x magnification what is the distance from the subject to the front of the lens? A lot of these macro lenses change the focal length by moving the internal lens elements and so the focal length might actually be 40mm or something like that. Good review. Regards Gerry
Wow, so when you’re that close to your subject, this wouldn’t be a good lens for bugs. I think I’d rather shoot it one to one and crop the image being that one to one. Your depth of field is greater. Thanks for the reply.
