Extreme Close-Up Creativity with a Unique Perspective
The Venus Optics Laowa 24mm T14-40 2x PeriProbe Cine Lens is built for filmmakers who want truly unique visuals. Designed for Sony E-Mount full-frame cameras, this lens delivers incredible close-up shots with unmatched perspective control.
Its tubular barrel and 2x magnification allow you to capture extreme macro shots. You can position the lens inches from your subject while keeping the camera out of the frame. This is ideal for product videos, nature films, and experimental visuals.
The wide 24mm focal length delivers immersive views with strong depth and minimal distortion. Full-frame coverage gives you crisp edge-to-edge quality, even at close focus distances.
This version includes an interchangeable 90° PeriProbe tip. It lets you shoot from a right angle, giving you flexibility for tight or creative spaces. You can even shoot underwater with optional accessories.
Built-in LED ring lights around the lens tip help illuminate your subject directly. This feature is especially useful when lighting in small or enclosed environments.
With a T14 to T40 aperture range, the lens offers deep depth of field and sharp focus throughout the frame. Manual focus control and cine-standard 0.8 MOD gear rings make it easy to use with follow focus systems.

Durable build with creative flexibility
The Laowa 24mm PeriProbe Lens offers a new level of visual storytelling. It’s the perfect tool for filmmakers who want to shoot what no other lens can.
High magnification: 1.5× means you can get more detail than standard 1:1 macro lenses. Good for very fine detail work.
Working distance: At ~14.8 cm in front of the subject when at 1.5×, fairly generous compared to many shorter macro lenses. This helps with lighting and working with live subjects (insects etc.).
Apochromatic correction: This helps to reduce chromatic aberration (both longitudinal and lateral), which is often a problem with macro lenses. Should give better color fidelity and less fringing.
Relatively lightweight & compact for what it offers (180mm tele macro with 1.5×). Makes field work more practical.
Versatility: Because it’s long focal length, can double for certain telephoto / portrait uses (though f/4.5 is a bit slow for very shallow DOF in that focal length).
