    Overview

    The Laowa Argus 33mm f/0.95 CF APO is a fully manual APS-C lens offering an ultra-fast aperture and APO correction for minimal chromatic aberration. Optically, it delivers impressive center sharpness even wide open, though corners soften and vignetting exceeds 2EV at f/0.95. Distortion is negligible. Build is all-metal with a dampened focus ring and de-clicked aperture, but the lens is heavy and front-heavy. It suits photographers and videographers seeking a characterful, fast prime for shallow depth of field, but those wanting autofocus or clicked aperture should look elsewhere.
