APO Design


With an apochromatic (APO) design, this lens effectively eliminates both longitudinal and lateral chromatic aberrations. The result is exceptional sharpness, true-to-life color accuracy, and minimal fringing across the entire image, even in challenging lighting conditions.

Extended Working Distance with 180mm


With a 180mm focal length, the lens offers a generous minimum working distance of 147.6mm, surpassing shorter macro lenses like the 58mm or 100mm options. This longer reach provides photographers with ample space for shooting and lighting setups, and reduces the chance of scaring the subject away.

Compact & Lightweight Design


Weighing just 484g (Canon EF) and 522g (Sony E) with dimensions of Ø67.6mm x 88.4mm and Ø67.6mm x 134.4mm, respectively, it stands out as one of the smallest and lightest options in its class. This makes it the ideal choice for professionals and enthusiasts seeking high performance without the bulk, perfect for handheld, field, or travel use.
