    Overview

    The Irix 150mm f/2.8 Macro 1:1 is a manual-focus lens praised for excellent optics, sharpness, and creamy bokeh from 11 aperture blades. Its build quality is high, with weather sealing and a durable aluminum-magnesium body. Weaknesses include lack of autofocus and image stabilization, making handheld macro difficult. It suits macro photographers who prefer manual focus and tripod work, offering a longer working distance than 100mm macros. It also performs well for astrophotography with its bright aperture and infinity lock.
