Laowa Pro2be 24mm T8 2x Probe Lens (35-degree Module) – 35-degree Angled View for Top-Down and Low-Angle Macro Shots

The Laowa Pro2be 24mm T8 2x Probe Lens with the 35-degree angled module gives filmmakers a distinctive way to capture ultra-close detail without repositioning the whole camera rig. The angled optical module produces top-down and low-angle perspectives that change how you reveal subjects during a take. Use it for tabletop cinematography, product commercials, culinary sequences, or any scene that benefits from a creative, close-up viewpoint.

Key features

• 2x magnification — Capture ultra-detailed close-ups and fine surface textures that standard lenses cannot reproduce.
• 35-degree angled module — Create dramatic top-down or low-angle perspectives while keeping the camera position steady.
• T8 aperture — Control exposure and gain an extended depth of field suited for near-field cinematography.
• Waterproof front barrel — Shoot in liquid environments or close to wet surfaces with confidence thanks to the tubular waterproof design.
• Integrated LED ring light — Illuminate subjects consistently at extreme close distances; the LED ring light ships with a power cable.
• Long probe design — Place the optical module in tight spaces, and use dolly-ins, slides, and reveal moves without moving the camera body.
• Minimal optical distortion — Maintain high edge-to-edge clarity for clean, usable footage across the frame.
• Cine-style PL mount housing — The lens sits in a robust, cine-grade PL mount barrel to integrate smoothly into professional workflows.

Design and practical use

The probe’s tubular construction and deep depth of field make it suitable for shooting in confined or wet environments. Because the module tilts 35 degrees, you can create parallax and layered compositions simply by moving the probe or camera slightly, offering new ways to tell visual stories. The integrated LED ring light ensures subjects remain well lit when working at extreme close range, and the waterproof front barrel protects the optics when shooting liquids or splashes.

Filmmakers will appreciate how the long probe form factor supports dynamic moves such as dolly-ins, slide reveals, and extended reach into scenes where a conventional lens would not fit. Moreover, the cine-grade PL mount barrel matches professional rigs and accessories, so you can incorporate the Pro2be into established camera setups.

Ideal use cases

• Tabletop cinematography and food/culinary sequences where top-down framing and close texture shots are required.
• Product commercials that demand ultra-detailed close-ups and precise composition.
• Scientific visuals and nature sequences that benefit from magnification and tight working distances.
• Any production that needs controlled depth of field and consistent close-range lighting for revealing details.
