Breaking new ground in high-magnification imaging, the Aurogon delivers exceptional optical performance through its advanced APO design. The system maintains remarkable chromatic aberration control and outstanding resolution across its entire magnification range. An adjustable numerical aperture aids in balancing brightness and depth of field, achieving tailored image quality for each unique environment.
This innovative system's modular design centres on practical usability. The fixed 20mm working distance remains constant across all magnification tubes, simplifying lighting setups and subject access. Magnification changes require no recalibration, allowing photographers to switch seamlessly between different levels of detail.
The ability to mount directly to cameras enables both vertical and horizontal shooting configurations, while full-frame sensor coverage ensures compatibility across a wide range of systems. This versatility makes the Aurogon equally capable in laboratory settings, studio environments, or field locations where traditional microscopes prove impractical.
Notable features include
- Interchangeable 10X-50X magnification tubes
- Adjustable numerical aperture
- Consistent 20mm working distance
- Superb clarity with advanced APO optics
- Low Chromatic aberration
- Full-frame sensor coverage
- Multiple direct camera mounting options
- Versatile profile for flexible shooting configurations
The Aurogon represents a significant advancement in accessible microscopic imaging. Its combination of professional optical performance and practical usability makes it invaluable for both scientific documentation and creative exploration of the microscopic world. Whether capturing specimen details, researching microorganisms, or exploring artistic perspectives of the invisible realm, this lens system unlocks direct high-magnification imaging without the constraints of traditional microscope setups.
EXPLORE THE UNSEEN
The Laowa Aurogon's 8-step adjustable NA range (0.15-0.5) gives photographers control over depth of field and light gathering in microscopic imaging. Higher NA values enable lower ISO settings for reduced noise, while lower NA extends sharpness across a greater depth of focus. This manual NA control allows fine-tuning of the lens' optical properties to optimize image quality for specific subjects and setups.
