From the Laowa booth – Laowa 10-18mm f4.5-5.6 and 100mm f2.8 2:1 Ultra Macro:
- 10-18mm zoom is the smallest and widest zoom for E-mount
- IBIS needs to be set manually in the menus if you want to leave it turned on
- Laowa is always trying to offer features that others dont
- There is a 37mm filter thread on the inside of the 10-24mm lens.
- Laowa is currently making a 100mm filter
- Not sure about price point, but maybe $700-800
- The 100mm macro is a world’s first 2:1 magnification ratio 100mm
- It still has infinity focus
- Not sure about the price yet, but will be in the region of $500
- Laowa is really into macro photography
- They are also showing off a 25-100mm t2.9 cinema lens
- The 25-100mm was designed from the ground up to be a cinema lens
- Not sure about the price yet, but will be around $10,000
- No camera yet, but they could get into cameras
- For right now Laowa is working on electronics for EXIF data and maybe more later
- The 7.5mm f/2 is also featured in the video with the 12mm f/1.8 and it is very small and both will be around $500
- Laowa only uses metal and no plastic
Laowa is certainly working on some impressive glass.
