Laowa 24mm T14 2X Periprobe - (Cine) Sony FE

Laowa 24mm T14 2X Periprobe – 2:1 magnification with interchangeable 90° periscope (Cine Sony FE)

The Laowa 24mm T14 2X Periprobe for Cine Sony FE mount provides filmmakers and photographers with unusual angles and close-up perspectives. Its periscope-style front module lets you capture immersive close-ups, rotate smoothly through scenes, and move through tight spaces that standard lenses cannot reach. Designed for creative applications such as commercial filmmaking, product photography, and macro videography, this lens brings new possibilities to visual storytelling.

Periscope design and optical performance

The lens features an interchangeable periscope front module that you can use either straight or at 90°. This design expands on Laowa’s probe concept and gives you flexible framing options. In addition, the lens offers a 2:1 magnification ratio, allowing you to record subjects at twice life-size for detailed macro work.

Laowa built the optical formula with 28 elements arranged in 19 groups to maintain image clarity and accurate color rendering. Together with the periscope front modules, this optical construction supports sharp, detailed close-ups and consistent color across the frame.
