Venus Optics Laowa 24mm f/14 Probe – Sony A

Venus Optics Laowa 24mm f/14 Probe - make your own endoscopy

The Laowa 24mm f/14 Probe from Venus Optics has been described as strange but brilliant. The lens is recognisable from a distance because its long, narrow body is literally striking. Imaging results in a 2:1 maximum magnification at 2 cm close focus. Even at this high magnification, you're physically a comfortable 40 centimetres away from your subject. Despite its unusual length, this is also a wide-angle lens, so the depth of field is relatively wide, and you get a good view of the surroundings.
