It’s an interchangeable macro lens for Sony E cameras, made for filmmakers who need close, carefully controlled views of products, plants and other small subjects. At 65mm, it gives you a useful working distance for arranging a product shot or framing a natural detail without making the lens’s macro purpose a one-trick feature. Its T2.9 maximum aperture also gives you control over exposure and depth of field as you shape the image. The APO optical design is intended to reduce colour fringing, while the lens’s ELD elements address chromatic aberration and distortion. That matters when fine edges, printed detail or delicate textures need to read cleanly on screen. You can also focus to infinity, so the lens can move from close-up details to more distant subjects within a scene. For product filmmakers, nature videographers and anyone building a shot around fine detail, this is a purpose-built cine option rather than a general-purpose zoom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 data-section=\"features\"\u003eWhy this focal length works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e65mm focal length:\u003c\/strong\u003e The moderate telephoto view keeps attention on the subject and works naturally for tightly framed product details, small objects and close views of nature.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eT2.9 maximum aperture:\u003c\/strong\u003e The lens opens to T2.9, giving you an exposure option for controlled cinema lighting and a shallow depth of field when you want the subject to separate from its surroundings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNine aperture blades:\u003c\/strong\u003e The nine-blade diaphragm shapes out-of-focus highlights into a soft, rounded look, useful when background detail falls away behind a close subject.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptical construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Its 14 elements in 10 groups include two apochromatic and three ELD elements.

On a Sony APS-C body, its 65mm focal length gives a field of view equivalent to approximately 97.5mm on full frame. That tighter view can be useful for isolating a product or a detail in nature. Focus and aperture are set on the lens, with geared rings for cine-style control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"specialist-note\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Laowa 65mm T2.9 2X Macro APO Cine is at its best when the shot depends on seeing a small subject in exceptional close detail. I’d point product filmmakers towards it for texture, labels and fine surface features, and nature videographers for close studies of leaves or small details. Its T2.9 maximum aperture gives you exposure flexibility and lets you choose a narrow plane of focus; pair that with deliberate manual focusing when you need a specific detail to hold sharp. The 2× macro ratio is the defining tool here, so you can frame subjects much larger than life size. One point to plan around: focus is manual, so this lens rewards measured focus adjustments rather than quick autofocus changes. For controlled close-up work, that direct approach is part of its appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLaowa 65mm T2.9 2X Macro APO Cine - Sony E\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Laowa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65mm T2.9 2X Macro APO Cine - Sony E (Lao-65-CI-SE)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Interchangeable cinema macro lens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFocal length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum aperture:\u003c\/strong\u003e T2.9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMagnification:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2×\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMount:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sony E\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFocus:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAperture blades:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLens construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 elements in 10 groups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter thread:\u003c\/strong\u003e 77mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 103 × 84mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 550g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Laowa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57447572013396,"sku":"29LAOWA65CISE0","price":630.73,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/2493\/3716\/files\/29LAOWA65CISE0_01.jpg?v=1791293377","url":"https:\/\/www.htf-store.com\/pl\/products\/laowa-65mm-t2-9-2x-macro-apo-cine-sony-e-lao-65-ci-se","provider":"Hard to Find Camera Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
