By Louis Ferreira | Published: September 15, 2018

While other companies are just starting to build out their mirrorless systems Fujifilm’s lens selection is pretty close to system complete for most photographers. X-shooters have waited for this kind of selection going all the way back to the Fujifilm X100 and X-Pro1 and we have finally arrived. Outside of a few highly specialized lenses, […]

Laowa 24mm f/14 Relay 2x Macro Lens Specifications

By Louis Ferreira | Published: July 27, 2018

Photorumors received some additional information about the Laowa 24mm f/14 Relay 2x Macro Lens. Unfortunately, this lens will not be native X-mount, but they will likely sell it with an adapter like the Laowa 25mm f/2.8 2.5-5X Ultra-Macro. While this is less than ideal Venus Optic lenses are all manual so you shouldn’t miss out on much […]

Laowa 25mm f/2.8 2.5-5X Ultra-Macro X-Mount Adapter and Ring Light: Updated

By Louis Ferreira | Published: July 26, 2018

Venus Optic released the Laowa 25mm f/2.8 2.5-5X Ultra-Macro a while ago, but not for X-Mount. So I haven’t posted about this lens here, but now Venus Optics sells the Laowa 25mm f/2.8 2.5-5X Ultra-Macro with an X-Mount adapter on their site. I noticed the adapter when looking at their new ring light for the Laowa 25mm f/2.8 […]

Laowa 9mm f/2.8 Zero-D vs Samyang 8mm F2.8 UMC Fisheye II First Look

By Louis Ferreira | Published: April 24, 2018

I received my Laowa 9mm f/2.8 Zero-D the other day along with the welcome kit and it seems to be a well built light lens, but it has an extremely light feel to it compared to the Samyang 8mm f/2.8 Fisheye II that I usually use for wide photos. Both lenses are very similar in size, but […]
