ZY Optics Unveils Mitakon 85mm f/2.8 1-5x Super Macro Lens

ZY Optics has unveiled the new Mitakon 85mm f/2.8 1-5x Super Macro Lens, a new option that wants to make it easier to get into extreme macro photography by providing “one of the longest working distance for ANY super macro lens.”

One of the challenges of super macro photography is just how close you have to get to your subject in order to achieve it. That’s all good and well if you’re shooting something static, but insects and other popular macro subjects don’t always stick around when you shove a lens barrel in their face.

That’s the problem the Mitakon lens seeks to solve with a minimum working distance of 10cm at 5x magnification and 27.2cm at 1x. Here’s a closer look at the Mitakon 85mm f/2.8 1-5x Super Macro at both 1x (25mm focal length) and 5x (85mm focal length):

The lens is made up of 12 lens elements in 8 groups, features a telecentric design for minimal focus breathing (and therefore easier focus stacking), and uses an 8-blade aperture that goes from f/2.8 down to f/32.

All of this is packed into a relatively compact lens that weighs just 750g, but in order to do this, ZY Optics had to sacrifice the ability to focus at infinity. Given the typical uses for a macro lens like this, that should be a trade-off worth making.

Here are a few official sample images from ZY Optics that were captured with the new lens:

The new Mitakon 85mm f/2.8 1-5x Super Macro Lens is available now for Canon EF, Nikon F, Sony E, Sony A, Pentax K, Micro Four Thirds, and Fuji X mounts at a retail price of $500. To learn more or see more sample images, head over to the ZY Optics website.

C-Lasik Wavefront Guided Lasik (Customized Lasik or C-Lasik) is a fast emerging as well as a better tool to restore the quality of vision. The surgical procedure remains the same. Customized Lasik can be better known as Eagle s Eye Vision . It is the next generation of Excimer laser and creates a customized perfect shape to the surface of the eye to allow an ideal focus.

There are several machines available in the market to measure the spherical and cylindrical aberrations of the eye. e.g. Zyoptics (Bausch & Lomb) & OPD Scan (Nidek). Out of the machines available OPD Scan from Nidek appears to be the best machine till date. At our center this is the machine that is being used.

Sophisticated software then converts the map into the Clinical Ablation Profile prescription. The prescription is transferred electronically to the computer controlling the laser. The computer calculates the shot pattern (i.e., where and how the laser will operate on the cornea) required for the correction of both the patient s lower and higher order aberrations. These laser machines are the latest generation machines with special laser delivery systems capable of handling such corrections.

Data map of optical imperfection in a human eye which is accessed by Wavefront Technology is then corrected by the laser.

Testing the weaknesses of the #Zhongyi #ZYOptics #mitakon35mmf095 lens wide open with its #lensflare. Some reviewers would point it out as a flaw in the lens; I would beg to differ. These reviewers are most likely NOT fine artists and wouldn’t know where to even start with exploiting the “weaknesses” of the lens! The #Mitakon is truly growing on me as of this morning.
