90mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO Lens
The Venus Optics Laowa 90mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO Lens for Sony FE is a manual-focus prime built for full-frame Sony E-mount cameras. It delivers 2:1 magnification with a 20.5 cm minimum focusing distance, allowing photographers to capture minute subjects at twice life-size. The apochromatic design uses 13 elements in 10 groups, including three extra-low dispersion elements, to suppress chromatic aberration across the frame. This bundle adds a 67mm UV filter, a 67mm CPL filter, a lens shade and a cleaning kit for immediate field use.
2:1 magnification with infinity focus
The lens reaches 2x reproduction ratio for extreme close-ups while retaining the ability to focus to infinity, making it suitable for macro, commercial and portrait work. Its optical formula controls purple fringing and ghosting throughout the aperture range, reducing post-processing time. The 90mm focal length provides a comfortable working distance for live subjects and product shots. Photographers needing autofocus, image stabilisation or magnification beyond 2x will require a different tool.
Compact manual prime for tripod or handheld use
The lens is described as super compact and lightweight compared with equivalent macro optics, aiding balance on mirrorless bodies. Its all-metal barrel and precise manual focus ring encourage deliberate composition, especially when paired with the included lens shade to control flare. Power draw is irrelevant for this passive optical instrument, and operation is silent. Users who prefer automated focus or electronic aperture linkage should consider alternative systems.

Questions about this item
Will this 90 mm f/2.8 lens mount directly on my older Sony full-frame mirrorless body?
Yes, it uses the Sony E-mount and covers the full-frame sensor, so it attaches natively to any Sony E-mount full-frame camera without an adapter.
How can I confirm the 2:1 magnification is working correctly after I mount the lens?
Focus at the 20.5 cm minimum distance; the subject should fill the frame at twice life-size on the sensor, and the APO design with 3 ED elements keeps chromatic aberration minimal at that magnification.
Does the bundle include everything I need to start shooting, or do I need to buy filters separately?
The box contains the lens, a 67 mm UV filter, a 67 mm CPL filter, a lens shade and a cleaning kit, so no additional filters are required.
