Let everyone realize creative, macro photography.

AstrHori announces the APS-C 18mm f/8 2x Macro Probe Lens for Sony E, Fuji X, Canon RF, EF, Nikon Z and more mounts.
The lens will be officially launched on May 29th on Amazon, AliExpress, independent stations and other platforms.
The lens is now on sale for an impressively-low price of just USD 719, EUR 999, JPY 119,599, GBP 879, MXN 14,369, CAD 989.

Following the launch of the 28mmF13 2X macro probe lens, the 18mmF8 2X macro macro probe lens is launched. I don’t know if there will be a 28mmF13 second-generation lens, let us look forward to it.

As the first APS-C probe lens, AstrHori 18mmF8 is a probe type macro lens with a detachable structure design, and the wide-angle focal length is 18mm. It makes up for the shortcomings that ordinary lenses cannot shoot in claustrophobic and small spaces. Stable image quality with a minimum focusing distance of approximately 0.05m and a maximum magnification ratio of 2:1 (life size).

The front end of the lens can be imaged separately, with a focal length of approximately 90mm, and in addition, the main subject is highlighted through the wide-angle macro, creating an immersive image.

This lens is not only an ideal choice for macro shooting, but the built-in movie gear can provide more convenience for movie shooting, whether it is a close-up of a product or a special lens for commercial shooting, it can be easily controlled.
