Expanded Laowa Argus 28mm f1.2 FF Lens Key Features:
Versatile and Powerful
Laowa’s Argus 28mm f1.2 FF lens joins a lineup of outstanding lenses known for their superb quality and results. Its 75.4° angle of view is slightly wider than usual, compared to 35mm and 50mm lenses, making the Argus 28mm f1.2 FF useful in most shoots - whether that’s street, landscape, or portraiture photography.
The lens construction of the Argus 28mm f1.2 FF ensures every frame is high quality. It consists of thirteen elements in seven groups, two of which are extra-low dispersion glass and another two being ultra-high refraction glass. Together, aberrations are suppressed across the entire frame, making every image you take sharp, clear and highly detailed.
Ultra-Fast Aperture
Just like the other Argus series lenses, the Argus 28mm f1.2 FF lens has an ultra-fast aperture. With a maximum f1.2 aperture, you can effortlessly create a much shallower depth of field to clearly separate your subject from the background. This ultra-fast aperture also provides incredible low-light performance, ensuring images are still sharp and crisp in any environment. Thanks to the lens’ thirteen-bladed aperture, expressive bokeh is created in out-of-focus areas - rendering gorgeous backgrounds for stunning portrait photography.
Video Friendly
Whilst photographers will get a lot out of the lens, so too will videographers. This lens has internal focusing which not only prevents dust from getting into the lens but also enhances stability and lowers the focus breathing effect - especially useful for when you’re focus pulling.
An aperture ring click switch lets you quickly choose between having a clicked or silent aperture ring, with a silent aperture being preferred when shooting video. Of course, the lens is compatible with a range of accessories such as polarisers and lens hoods.

The Buy Now Pay Later option comprises a 36 month loan following a six month deferral period.
During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.
Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Novuna Personal Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six-month deferral period is due to elapse.
