Macro Probe Lens Comparison

Photographer and filmmaker Karl Taylor puts two unusual macro probe lenses to the test—the AstrHori 28mm and the Laowa 24mm. With a series of creative experiments, he explores their strengths, weaknesses, and surprising results, giving you an inside look at how each performs in real-world scenarios.

    That was really good. Thank you for the comparison. Last year I bought my first third party macro lens and it’s a Laowa and I love it. It was my first manual lens and for me, helped me understand things much better. I would love to play with this probe lens from them. Though I don’t believe they make it for my mount.

    Anyway, thank you for these classes. My name is Ivy and I’m happy to be here.

    PS: You did a lesson awhile back that I watched where the jean coat wasn’t straight which then made me notice the little coat not straight on a mini that I count to shoot. Your attention to detail as it has helped my attention to detail

    Happy New Year to you and your team.
    Cheers, Ivy

  2. I was hoping you could create product video tutorials on your platform and add them to the filmmaking section, as there aren’t any well-structured courses available online
