This week I bring to you a full two years of the Sigma 180mm Macro lens. Is it a solid lens and worth the price? Does it deliver as a medium telephoto? Can you use this lens as your go to portraiture lens. Over the course of two years now, I will give you my opinion and a few Macro shots.
Do you need diffusers? - Trick Bits has diffusers! Big is better, and Trick Bits offers a scale-up to the out-of-box experience, and bigger does not mean heavier!! Trick Bits has custom-fitted diffusers for the most popular macro lighting systems. - I bought mine, and I am in Macro Diffuser Heaven! I used a Nikon R1C1 system for many years but was unhappy with the harsh specular lighting it produced on my tiny insects. Over the years, I tried modifying the supplied diffusers and added a small handheld diffuser to further diffuse the light - what a pain.
Laowa has been making excellent lenses now for several years, and in their macro lineup, you have several lenses to choose from. Many macro enthusiasts have raved about the 100mm even with its odd front glass element missing. Now Laowa has introduced the 90mm Macro made specifically for mirrorless cameras.
Laowa offers a very compact full-frame 85mm 2 X macro to satisfy the enthusiast and pro macro photographers. With a small lightweight footprint and low cost, the Laowa 85mm Macro will appeal to many photographers.
