Sightron Japan has officially announced the launch of the LAOWA 90mm F2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO lens, specifically designed for Micro Four Thirds (MFT) systems. Set to hit the shelves on April 24, 2026, this remarkable lens offers photographers the ability to explore and capture minute details like never before.

Key Features of the LAOWA 90mm F2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO

2x Magnification

With a stunning 2x magnification capability, the LAOWA 90mm lens delivers images that are equivalent to 4x on a full-frame camera. This means it can reveal the hidden beauty of the microscopic world that is often overlooked by the naked eye, providing photographers an opportunity to create extremely detailed images.

Enhanced Operation with Electronic Aperture

Equipped with electronic aperture control, this lens allows users to easily adjust the aperture settings directly through the camera. It also supports recording EXIF data for more efficient shooting sessions, enhancing your photography experience significantly.

Superior APO Design

The optical construction consists of 10 groups and 13 elements, meticulously designed to minimize chromatic aberration, especially prevalent in macro photography. The lens provides exceptionally vivid color reproduction and remarkable sharpness from edge to edge, even when shooting wide open.

Compact and Lightweight Design

Weighing only approximately 540g, the LAOWA lens boasts a lightweight and compact form factor, making it an ideal companion for fieldwork. Its inner focus mechanism ensures that the length of the lens does not change during focus adjustments, which reduces the risk of contact with subjects during close-up shots.

Perfect for Portraits

With a 180mm equivalent focal length and an aperture of F2.8, this lens also serves excellently for portrait photography. Its ability to deliver a beautifully blurred background complements the sharp subject perfectly, allowing for a range of stunning visual expressions.

High-Precision Manual Focus

The lens features a high-precision manual focus system, enabling photographers to achieve exact focus on their desired subject, even with an extremely shallow depth of field.
