Laowa (Venus Optics) Reviews

Laowa AF 200mm f/2

NEW: Laowa 200mm f/2 AF Review & Sample Images.

105mm filters, also a 43mm rear filter holder in Nikon Z and Sony mount versions, 56.0 oz./1,588g in Canon EF mount as shown; 62¼ oz./1,765g in Nikon Z & Sony mounts, 4.9'/1.5m close focus, 0.15× macro ratio.

Check price for Canon EF or RF, for Nikon Z and for Sony E.

Each of the three versions comes in a dark blue or a more traditional gray.

I'd get mine at B&H, at Adorama or at Amazon, or get it used at eBay (How to Win at eBay), or possibly get it used at KEH.
