## Summary description

Laowa VE10028CM is a Venus Optics macro lens for SLR cameras with Canon EF mount. It features an optical construction of 12 elements in 10 groups, a 100 mm focal length, 67 mm filter thread, 72 mm length and 10 cm diameter. Designed for close-up and macro photography, it suits product, nature and detail imaging on Canon EF-compatible bodies.

## Long description

The Laowa VE10028CM by Venus Optics is a manual-aperture 100mm macro lens for Canon EF mount, designed for close-up and detailed imaging. With a focal length of 100mm and an optical design of 12 elements in 10 groups, the lens provides full-frame coverage and a wide working range from 2:1 macro magnification to infinity. The version for Canon EF is fully mechanical: aperture control and focusing are manual, the aperture is clickless and stepless, and no electronic chip is present for EXIF transmission. Apochromatic optics reduce chromatic aberration for clearer rendering of fine details.
Advantages
The lens delivers up to 2:1 magnification, enabling twice life-size reproduction for extreme close-up detail. Its APO optical design minimizes longitudinal chromatic aberration in both focused and defocused areas. Manual, clickless aperture control provides smooth iris changes useful for videography and for use with adapters on other camera systems. Despite the extended magnification range, the physical size remains comparable to standard 100mm macro lenses, while the 13-blade aperture contributes to pleasing out-of-focus rendering.
Suitable for
Close-up and extreme macro photography of small subjects (insects, textures, jewelry)
Product and detail photography that requires high magnification and sharpness
Videography where smooth, stepless aperture control is required
Portrait work on full-frame Canon EF bodies when infinity focus is needed

How to use
Mount the Laowa VE10028CM on a Canon EF-compatible camera body and set the camera to manual or appropriate exposure mode to work with a manual-aperture lens. Compose and focus manually using the focus ring; for precise framing at high magnifications use a tripod, focusing rails, or a stable support. Adjust the stepless aperture ring to control depth of field and exposure smoothly—this is particularly useful during video recording. Because no electronic communication is present, set ISO and shutter speed on the camera body and record exposure metadata manually if needed.
Usage recommendations
Use a sturdy tripod and, for subject-level accuracy at 2:1 magnification, consider a macro focusing rail. Employ controlled lighting or a ring/dedicated macro flash to ensure even illumination and to reduce motion blur. When adapting the lens to other mounts, verify flange distance and maintain manual aperture control as required. For portrait use at infinity focus, stop down moderately for increased sharpness while maintaining subject separation.
