Venus Optics, makers of Laowa lenses, has built up quite a reputation for probe lenses: long macro lenses that can help you shoot from bug-eye perspectives simply not possible when using a regular macro lens. First, there was the original 24mm f/14 Periprobe lens launched in 2018, and more recently, Laowa gave us the 24mm T8 Pro2be in 2023.
Now it's set to follow this up later in 2025 with a new Zoom Probe Lens. Currently we only have a teaser for the upcoming optic, so information and specifications are mostly under wraps. We do know the lens will have 2.3x optical zoom, which would equate to a 15-35mm focal range, and it will be parfocal, meaning your subject should stay in focus even when the focal length or 2x magnification changes.
