55MM f/2.8 TILT-SHIFT 1X MACRO LENS

Laowa proudly brings this incredible Tilt-shift Macro lense for full-frame cameras: 55mm f/2.8 Tilt-Shift 1X Macro. It features a precise tilt of ±10°, a shift of ±12mm, and an impressive 1:1 magnification. This is the first tilt-shift macro lens Laowa has featuring a fast f/2.8 aperture designed.

PRECISE TILT OF ±10° AND SHIFT OF ±12MM

The lens offers a precise Tilt of ±10° and a Shift of ±12mm, allowing photographers to control perspective and selective focus effortlessly to create a shallow depth of field style.

 

 

 

TILT OF ±10°

The maximum possible tilt amount of the lens is ±10° adjustment. It enables photographers to manipulate the image plane for both practical and creative effects.

 

 

 

 

 

MINIMIZING POST-PROCESSING

 

Adjusting the focal plane by tilt allows specific areas to be in focus, reducing the need to stop down the aperture while still achieving an extensive depth of field for specific surface. Additionally, for products with reflective surfaces (such as jewelry), using a tilt-shift lens can help minimize unwanted reflections.

 

 

 

SHIFT OF ±12MM

 

With a maximum shift of ±12mm for full-frame cameras, this feature allows for precise perspective control and easy correction of vertical lines, helping to avoid perspective distortion—ideal for architectural photography.

 

 

 

SEAMLESS PHOTO STITCHING

 

Using the shift function, panoramas can be easily created through photo stitching.

 

 

 

 

 

ADJUSTABLE TILT-SHIFT DIRECTION FOR FLEXIBLE ANGLES

 

The lens allow for flexible angles and effortless composition adjustments with two different rotation systems. There’s one 90° Rotation for changing Tilt Direction and one for shift direction with clicks at every 15°.

 

 

 

 

1X MAGNIFICATION

 

This first-of-their-kind tilt-shift lens offer 1:1 magnification of life-size images, capturing extensive details up close. It focus as closely as 27 cm from subjects, allowing photographers to shoot at short distances.

 

 

 

 

 

EXCELLENT LOW-LIGHT PERFORMANCE

 

With f/2.8 maximum aperture, the lens can perform outstandingly in a low-light environment.

 

 

OUTSTANDING OPTICAL PERFORMANCE

 

Engineered with exceptional optics, the lens feature 14 elements in 11 groups. This design ensures outstanding image quality with minimal vignette, capturing every detail with precision and clarity.

 

 

 

VERSATILE FOR VARIOUS SHOOTING OCCASIONS

 

The lens excel across multiple scenarios, whether in macro, landscape, architecture, or product photography.

 

 

 

77MM FILTER THREAD

 

Designed with a built-in filter thread, this allow for the easy use of screw-in filters without a separate filter holder.

 

 

 

 

 

 

BUILT-IN LENS SUPPORT WITH ARCA-SWISS

A lens support comes with the lens and can be easily attached to a tripod with the Arca-Swiss system.
