Description 55mm f/2.8 Tilt-shift 1X Macro Lens Laowa proudly brings not one but two incredible Tilt-shift Macro lenses for full-frame cameras: 55mm & 100mm f/2.8 Tilt-Shift 1X Macro. They both feature a precise tilt of ±10°, a shift of ±12mm, and an impressive 1:1 magnification. They are the first tilt-shift macro lenses Laowa has featuring a fast f/2.8 aperture designed. Due to its large image circle, it can also be used on medium-format cameras.   Captured with 55mm f/2.8 Tilt-shift 1X Macro on GFX Camera  © Wentai   Precise Tilt of ±10° and Shift of ±12mm The lenses offer a precise Tilt of ±10° and a Shift of ±12mm, allowing photographers to control perspective and selective focus effortlessly to create a shallow depth of field style. © FengNiao    © Jimmy Cheng   Tilt of ±10° The maximum possible tilt amount of the lens is ±10° adjustment. It enables photographers to manipulate the image plane for both practical and creative effects.   Minimizing post-processing Adjusting the focal plane by tilt allows specific areas to be in focus, reducing the need to stop down the aperture while still achieving an extensive depth of field for specific surface. Additionally, for products with reflective surfaces (such as jewelry), using a tilt-shift lens can help minimize unwanted reflections.
