Out of 4 lenses only one has a mount for one of my cameras. None of them has a spring aperture, autofocus, VR - they are rather expensive for what they offer including inconvenient usage.
I don't think, lack of AF is a problem for what they are - however, the 2:1 macro lens cries for focus stacking and here one has no other choice than to get a motor driven rail.
Of course, as they borrow you the lenses for free, they will get at least attention of OL readers. But find for yourself if you really need them. I am very disappointed with build quality of the 15/4 macro shift - and it's an all metal shitty design.
I glady step back and leave the happiness of discovering Laowa to others.
