The Laowa Argus 28mm f/1.2 FF has a modern take on the classic and versatile 28mm focal length. Rendering impressive sharpness and optical performance even at wide-open. Work beautifully as an everyday lens in the day and in low-light situations as well. The slightly wider AoV(compare to 35mm and 50mm) can be handy when doing street, landscape, and even environmental portraits. A 62mm filter thread is available for any screw-in filters, giving photographers the option to create shallow DoF images even when the sun is up. The lens itself is only about 562g and 68.5 x 106mm in size. Making it an excellent travel companion.

An Extremely Versatile Focal Length

The 28mm has an AoV of 75.4°. Compared to the trendy 50mm and 35mm, the lens can capture slightly more details from the environment which could help to tell a better story. Pair with the f/1.2 aperture, photographers can now have more control over how much background information is to be included and how isolated the subject is from its surrounding. This also gives more flexibility when framing the scene.

Despite being so versatile, the lens only weighs 562g(19.82oz), which makes it a perfect travel companion for someone who loves records of every precious moment with a camera.

With its f/1.2 Ultra-Fast Aperture, the lens can easily create a shallow depth of field and allow for easy subject separation. The large aperture is also good for getting lovely bokeh that gives the image a touch of artistic sense.

With the 13-blade aperture, this 28mm lens is able to render creamy and dreamy bokeh under a large aperture, adding an artistic character to your image.

The 28mm lens is a high-performance prime lens that offers exceptional image quality for professional photographers. Incorporating two ultra-high refractive (UHR) elements and two extra-low dispersion (ED) elements that enhance sharpness and contrast, this lens delivers stunning details across the entire frame even at f/1.2 wide-open.

Internal Focusing

The design of internal focusing avoids collision of the lens and other objects. And it can use the accessories designed to be set to a specific position such as polarizers. It also prevents dust from falling into the lens.

Aperture Click Switch Mechanism
