2X Macro APO Lens for Fujifilm X

The Venus Optics Laowa 65mm f/2.8 delivers 2X magnification with a minimum focus distance of 6.69 inches (17cm). Its APO design uses 14 elements in 10 groups to minimise chromatic aberrations for sharp, colour-accurate results. The f/2.8 maximum aperture supports low-light shooting and shallow depth of field. This bundle adds a ProOptic 52mm filter kit, cleaning kit, lens cap tether and lens cleaner.

Suited for APS-C macro and portrait work

Photographers needing greater than 1.5X magnification on Fujifilm X bodies will benefit from the 2X life-size capability and infinity-to-macro focus range. The 65mm focal length also serves well for portraits and daily stills. Buyers who require autofocus should look elsewhere, as this lens is manual focus only. Those shooting full-frame systems cannot use this APS-C optimised design.

2X magnification at 6.69-inch minimum focus

The defining specification is the 2:1 maximum magnification ratio combined with a 6.69-inch (17cm) minimum focusing distance. Most competing macro lenses for this format stop at 1.5X, so this optic reaches finer detail levels for insects, plants and small-product work. The wide magnification range from infinity to 2X covers diverse close-up scenarios in a single lens.

Questions about this item

How do I mount the 65mm f/2.8 lens on my Fujifilm X body and what step is often missed?

Align the lens mount index with the camera's red dot, twist clockwise until it clicks, then remove the rear cap; the step often missed is setting the aperture ring to the desired f-stop before shooting.

What maintenance will the 14-element APO lens and 52mm filters need over time?

Clean the front and rear glass with the included microfiber cloth and lens cleaner; check the filter threads for dust, and store the lens with caps on to protect the 10-group optical formula.

At what point does the 2X magnification limit appear during extended close-up sessions?

The lens reaches its 2:1 maximum magnification at the 6.7-inch minimum focus distance; beyond that point you cannot focus closer, so plan subject distance accordingly.
