Description
The Laowa 55mm f/2.8 Tilt-Shift 1x Macro lens is a professional dedicated lens for Full Frame mirrorless cameras and aimed at photographers seeking maximum control over perspective, focal plane and image scale. With a focal length of 55mm, the lens offers a natural perspective suitable for product, architectural, portrait and macro photography.
Its main strength is the combination of a tilt-shift mechanism and a true 1:1 macro zoom, which allows subjects to be captured life-size on the sensor. This opens up unique creative possibilities, from perspective correction in architectural shots to precise control of the focus area in macro scenes, where standard lenses do not offer the same flexibility.
The ±12mm tilt mechanism allows the focal plane to be tilted, allowing for selective focus and artistic control over depth of field. This is particularly useful in macro and product photography, where a specific detail can be emphasized without closing down the aperture unnecessarily.
The ±10mm shift function allows optically shifting the image relative to the sensor without tilting the camera. This provides perspective correction and maintains straight verticals and horizontals, which is key in architectural and interior photography, where geometric accuracy is crucial.
The lens supports true 1:1 macro magnification, with a minimum focusing distance of approximately 27 cm. This allows for detailed capture of small objects, textures and products, while maintaining control over composition and perspective. The optical construction of 14 elements in 11 groups is designed for high resolution and stable contrast at both macro and standard distances.
The 15-blade diaphragm contributes to smooth and natural transitions between sharpness and defocus. The maximum aperture of f/2.8 provides a good balance between brightness and image control, and the ability to stop down to f/22 allows for greater depth of field when needed.
The LAOWA 55mm f/2.8 Tilt-Shift 1x Macro is a fully manual focus lens that provides precise and predictable control for macro and studio work. The 62.7° angle of view offers natural framing suitable for a wide range of applications. The lens supports 77mm diameter front filters, making it easy to work with polarizing and ND filters.
With a diameter of about 85 mm, a length of approximately 162 mm and a weight of about 1.35 kg, the lens is massive and stable, consistent with the precise mechanics of the tilt-shift system. The design is oriented towards professional use and reliable operation during long shooting sessions.
