## Long description

The Venus Optics Laowa 24mm f/14 2X Probe is a specialist macro lens designed for MILC and SLR cameras that combines a 24mm wide-angle perspective with up to 2× magnification. The lens provides an extended reach with a slim probe-style barrel, a fixed f/14 aperture and a long working length of 408 mm, enabling close-up and inspection photography with greater depth of field at short distances than conventional telephoto macro optics. Its front barrel is waterproof and includes a mounted LED ring light (LED powered by an external battery, not included). Available in multiple mounts and with an optional cine-style version, the lens supports both full-frame and Super35 sensors while remaining compact and lightweight for field use.
Advantages
The probe design delivers an unusual wide-angle "bug-eye" perspective that increases apparent depth of field near the subject, allowing more background context to remain visible in extreme close-ups. A complex optical construction of 27 elements in 19 groups is engineered to support high magnification with controlled aberrations. The waterproof front barrel and integrated LED ring light extend practical utility for inspection, industrial and nature macro work where access and illumination are limited. A cine-style version and multiple mount options expand compatibility with both stills and motion workflows.
Suitable for
Close-up macro photography of small subjects and details
Industrial inspection and quality control imaging
Scientific and entomology documentation requiring shallow working distance
Creative wide-angle macro and "bug-eye" perspective shots
Videography setups using the cine-mod with geared focus and aperture rings

How to use
Mount the Laowa 24mm f/14 2X Probe on a compatible MILC or SLR camera using the appropriate mount adapter. Use manual focus to position the subject within the probe’s working distance; the wide-angle design provides increased depth of field compared with telephoto macro lenses, but careful control of distance and focus remains essential at high magnification. Connect the LED ring light cable and power it from an external battery if additional illumination is required. For video use, choose the cine-mod version to benefit from standard geared focus and aperture rings and attach follow-focus or lens motors as needed.
Usage recommendations
When shooting, stabilise the camera and probe to avoid camera shake and gently approach the subject to avoid disturbance. Use the LED ring light for even near-field illumination; adjust power with the supplied dimmer cable for balanced exposure. For inspection or scientific work, place the subject on a stable platform and use controlled lighting to reveal surface detail. Allow time to practise framing with the probe’s unique perspective to achieve consistent results.
