Product information

Description

Laowa 25mm f/2.8 2.5–5× Ultra Macro is a dedicated macro lens for MILC and SLR cameras that provides extreme close-up capability with magnification from 2.5× up to 5×. The optical design uses 8 elements in 6 groups and a wide-angle approach to deliver a greater depth of field at high magnifications. With a compact form factor — approximately 82 mm in length, 65 mm diameter and 400 g weight — this manual-focus lens is designed for controlled macro work in the studio or field where space and lighting around the subject are important.

Advantages

The lens offers a high-magnification range (2.5:1 to 5:1) for producing greater-than-life-size images while maintaining a wider-angle geometry that increases usable depth of field versus longer focal length macro lenses. Its compact and lightweight construction improves portability for field use and makes it easier to position lights or ringlights close to the subject. The extended working distance (about 45 mm at 2.5× and 40 mm at 5×) provides room for illumination and manipulation of the subject, and the manual-focus control enables precise focusing at extreme magnifications.

Suitable for

Extreme close-up insect and small animal photography
Product, jewelry and watch macro imaging
Scientific, forensic and quality-control documentation
Macro focus stacking and controlled studio setups

How to use

Mount the Laowa 25mm f/2.8 2.5–5× Ultra Macro on a compatible MILC or SLR camera and switch to manual-focus mode. Frame the subject and adjust the camera position to set the desired magnification between 2.5× and 5×; moving the camera body closer to the subject increases magnification. Use small, precise focus adjustments on the lens barrel to obtain critical focus at high magnifications. For reproducible results, use a tripod or a rigid support and consider focus stacking to extend apparent depth of field when necessary.

Usage recommendations

Prefer working with controlled lighting and a stable support. Use the extended working distance to position LED ringlights or small directional lights without blocking the lens. For very small subjects, combine this lens with a tripod collar or tripod-mounted focusing rail and use manual exposure or tethered shooting for accurate composition. When maximum sharpness across the subject is required, record multiple frames at slightly shifted focus positions and merge them in focus-stacking software.
