Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO announced - Klaus - 01-24-2020 https://www.venuslens.net/product/laowa-65mm-f-2-8-2x-ultra-macro-apo/ The lens is currently in da lab ... and pretty good actually. Yes, JJ - it still lacks EXIF. RE: Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO announced - toni-a - 01-25-2020 Laowa mustb take more seriously being honest with their marketing You can't use the same sample pictured for two different products just compare with their own 100mm samples https://www.venuslens.net/product/laowa-100mm-f-2-8-2x-macro-apo/ https://www.venuslens.net/product/laowa-65mm-f-2-8-2x-ultra-macro-apo/ RE: Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO announced - mst - 01-25-2020 Not sure what you are referring to... I don't see any duplicate images. RE: Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO announced - davidmanze - 01-25-2020 Looks a very interesting lens !! Mirror-less only ...... RE: Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO announced - Rover - 01-25-2020 Oh, it's not what I thought it to be - it's an APS-C only lens designed to mimic the 100mm on FF, not a complimentary product designed to be similar to the Canon MP-E (which is also 65mm but for FF).

But I wonder how they did some of their macros? Obviously the DoF is larger than it could be without focus stacking. At the moment I have some little things to take pictures form. I did and I also did focus stacks but altogether, I'm not really satisfied with the results. To the point that I really think about getting a motorize macro-rail and do the stacking with this. I just believe it will change the perspective constantly (as the camera is moving towards or away) and the stacking software will have troubles. RE: Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO announced - Brightcolours - 01-26-2020 This is a total nonsense "sample image" https://www.venuslens.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2019-03-24-18-46-16-ARadius8Smoothing4-1.jpg Why would they post something like that nonsense photoshop collage as a sample image? And I agree with JoJu that this for sure is not a "sample image" from that lens, but at least a huge photo stack: https://www.venuslens.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/DSC09281-2-1200x792.jpg RE: Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO announced - you2 - 01-26-2020 high vignetting wide open ?

If the one pictured is naturally big than the picture is possible. We had one in our yard that was close to 4" RE: Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO announced - JJ_SO - 01-27-2020 (01-27-2020, 02:45 AM)borisbg Wrote:(01-26-2020, 06:38 PM)Brightcolours Wrote: And I agree with JoJu that this for sure is not a "sample image" from that lens, but at least a huge photo stack: Not that species: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creobroter_gemmatus and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_mantis Wikipedia says 3.8 - 4 cm And as it raised it's legs as threatening gesture, so the lens was close. I have a 60 mm macro and I'd say the transition between sharp structures on the stone and blurred parts happens too sudden to be only the DoF of an aperture. |
