## Long description

The Laowa 100mm f/2.8 Tilt-Shift 1:1 Macro (Sony E mount) is a specialist full-frame mirrorless lens combining true 1:1 macro reproduction with precise tilt and shift controls. Designed for close-up and studio work, the lens provides a maximum aperture of f/2.8, a closest focusing distance of 0.32 m, and a 77 mm filter thread. Its optical construction and mechanical controls allow photographers to correct perspective, manipulate the plane of focus, and capture life-size detail while retaining compatibility with Sony E-mount bodies.
Advantages
The lens offers ±10° tilt and ±12 mm shift, enabling selective focus, perspective correction and panorama stitching without digital cropping. A fast f/2.8 aperture improves low-light capability and depth-of-field control at close distances. With true 1:1 magnification and a close focus of 0.32 m, the lens captures fine surface detail for product and macro photography. A large image circle makes it usable on some medium-format systems, while a built-in 77 mm filter thread and supplied Arca‑Swiss compatible lens support simplify in-field setups.
Suitable for
Product and still-life photography requiring precise focus plane control
Macro photography and close-up detail work at 1:1 magnification
Architectural and interior photography needing perspective correction
Studio and commercial photography where selective focus or miniature effects are desired
Panorama capture via shift-assisted photo stitching

How to use
Mount the lens on a compatible Sony E-mount camera and secure the supplied lens support to the tripod using the Arca‑Swiss system if extended stability is required. Use the shift control to correct perspective or to create a wider stitching area for panoramas. Apply tilt to modify the focal plane for selective focus or to achieve the miniature effect; rotate the lens rotation systems to align tilt and shift directions as needed. For macro work, approach the subject until the lens reaches its closest focus distance and set the magnification to 1:1 for life-size reproduction. Stop down the aperture when higher depth of field is necessary, and consider using a tripod and remote release to reduce camera shake at close distances.
Usage recommendations
For product and jewelry photography, use a modest tilt to keep the subject surface in focus while maintaining a wider aperture to control background separation. When correcting architectural perspective, apply vertical shift and keep the camera back level to avoid converging lines. For high-detail macro images, shoot on a stable support, use controlled lighting, and bracket focus or stop down gradually to balance sharpness and background rendering.
