Key Features
- Full-Frame | f/14 to f/40
- Focus and Aperture Gears for Cine Use
- Unique Probe Design for Close-Up Work
- 2:1 to Infinity Magnification
Described as "weird but genius," the Sony E-mount Laowa 24mm f/14 Probe Lens from Venus Optics is a truly unique lens designed for close-up shooting. Distinguished by its long and slender lens barrel, this macro lens provides a 2:1 maximum magnification with a 1.5' minimum focusing distance and a close 0.8" minimum working distance. Even with such a close working distance, the lens measures 1.3' long, placing you at a comfortable distance to photograph nearby subjects. Also, as a wide-angle lens, greater depth of field is afforded when compared to traditional telephoto macro lenses, allowing for greater detail in the background with less subject isolation.

Some reviewer reported about yellowish LED light. How bad is it?
My whole lens leans yellow anyways, the light seems mostly daylight balanced.
I try to stay away from front light in my photography and cinematography so I tend to avoid using it. Also in specular reflections you can very clearly see the 8 individual diodes that compose the ring light.
This lens is incredible for what it is capable of, but it does have it’s limitations.

Can someone list every single difference between the cine-mod and regular versions of this lens?
Cine lenses will have built in gear on the focus ring for focus pulling. That's why it's called the Cine-Mod Version. The original version does not have the built in gear around the focus ring.
