Inspired by the legend of Argus, a mythical giant with all-seeing sight, the Laowa 33mm f/0.95 CF APO Lens for Sony E-mount camera bodies from Venus Optics is a magnificent f/0.95 standard-length lens for APS-C-format cameras. The ultra-fast aperture is well suited for low light photography, astrophotography, shallow depth of field portraits, and narrative videography. The apochromatic design incorporates one extra-low dispersion element, one aspherical element, and three ultra-high refraction elements to achieve sharp, clear images with minimal chromatic aberration across the frame.
For video applications, this dynamic manual focus lens has long focus throw and low focus breathing for fine focus control, plus a stepless aperture ring for smooth exposure transitions.
