## Summary description

Laowa VE5028MFT is a macro lens by Venus Optics designed for MILC systems. It features a 50mm focal length, optical construction of 14 elements in 10 groups and offers up to 2× maximum magnification for close-up photography. Compatible with Blackmagic Design, Olympus and Panasonic mirrorless bodies, the lens is compact (79 mm length) and finished in black for macro and product, nature and scientific imaging.

## Long description

The Laowa VE5028MFT is a dedicated macro lens for mirrorless interchangeable-lens cameras with the Micro Four Thirds mount. With a 50mm focal length and up to 2× (2:1) maximum magnification, the lens is designed to capture very small details for product, nature and scientific photography. Its apochromatic optical design with 14 elements in 10 groups, including extra-low dispersion elements, reduces chromatic aberration and improves sharpness and color fidelity. The lens features a compact, black metal finish and a CPU with motorized aperture control for integration with camera bodies.
Advantages
The Laowa 50mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro provides a larger reproduction range than typical MFT macro lenses by reaching 2× life-size magnification while maintaining a compact and lightweight form factor. APO design and extra-low dispersion elements minimise color fringing and contribute to clearer, more accurate rendering across the frame. A built-in CPU enables aperture control from the camera body and lets camera systems record lens data in EXIF. The mechanical construction and modest dimensions improve handling for handheld or tripod work in close-up situations.
Suitable for
Product and e-commerce photography requiring detailed close-ups
Macro nature photography: insects, plants, textures
Scientific and technical imaging where high magnification and color accuracy are needed
Studio macro setups and focus-stacking workflows
Compact travel macro where low weight and small size matter

How to use
Mount the Laowa VE5028MFT on a compatible Micro Four Thirds camera and use manual focus to precisely position the plane of focus; the lens is a manual-focus design optimized for close-up work. Set aperture using the camera body controls; the CPU enables camera-side aperture adjustment and EXIF recording. For extreme magnification, work on a stable support such as a tripod or copy stand to reduce movement. Use live view and focus magnification on the camera while turning the focus ring for accurate focusing on fine details. Adjust illumination to achieve even lighting and preserve color fidelity.
Usage recommendations
For sharp results at high magnifications, stabilize the camera, use controlled lighting and take multiple shots at slightly different focus positions for focus stacking if greater depth of field is required. Maintain a safe working distance to avoid disturbing delicate subjects and use a small aperture only as needed, balancing diffraction and depth-of-field requirements.
