The Laowa Peribrobe 24mm lens is a unique and innovative lens that offers cinematographers a new perspective and creative flexibility. This periscope is a lens designed for macro photography and offers a focal length of 24mm, a maximum aperture of f/14 and a minimum focusing distance of only 2.5cm.
One of the most remarkable features of this lens is its periscope-like, 90° bent design, which allows it to be positioned directly above or below the subject without interfering with it. This makes it ideal for taking macro shots of small objects and insects, as well as other objects that are difficult to access with traditional macro lenses. The lens can also be tilted in all directions to capture images from unique perspectives, giving framers more creative control over their compositions.
In terms of image quality, the Laowa Periprobe 24mm lens produces crisp, clear images with excellent detail. The lens is composed of 12 elements in 10 groups and includes an apodization element, which helps reduce chromatic aberrations and produce smoother bokeh. The lens also has a multi-layer coating, which helps reduce flare and improve image clarity. The aperture is f14 to f40, but this small aperture must be taken into account when compensating for the subject's illumination.
Notched and in PL mount, the Laowa Periprobe 24mm lens available for rent at La Prod du Sud in Marseille is 43cm long, it is compact and light, moreover its small size and its periscope design make it easy to carry and store.
In conclusion, the Laowa Periprobe 24mm lens is a unique and innovative lens that offers cinematographers a new perspective and creative flexibility. With its periscope design, small size and excellent image quality, this lens is an excellent option for shooting packshots, immersive images, nature shots, but also, it allows to make original transitions reproducing movements similar to a robotic arm.
