Anhui, China—Venus Optics introduced two tilt-shift macro lenses for full-frame mirrorless cameras: the Laowa 55mm f/2.8 Tilt-Shift 1x Macro and the 100mm. They both feature a precise tilt of ±10°; a shift of ±12mm; as well as a 1:1 magnification.

Moreover, the lenses allow photographers to manipulate the plane of focus and adjust the perspective distortions. The true 1:1 macro capability also enables them to capture fine details of the subject. Further, the lenses are an option for commercial, macro, landscape and architectural photography.
