Pros:APO, macro ratio up to 2:1, optimal focus excursus, pleasant even as a medium-telephoto non-macro, nice tonal rendering.
Cons:Somewhat cheesy lens hood
Opinion:I add two notes given the absence of other contributions. The lens is the update of the Laowa 100mm F2.8 APO 2:1 Macro, released in 2019 for DSLR and then adapted for ML while maintaining the original focal length. This "90" therefore represents the engineering of that project for the growing ML market that maintains the optical heart but makes some interesting changes: reduction of size, lengthening and optimization of the focus travel and affixing of a removable neutral lens at the head of the lens (On the "100" it was a removable filter). Everything else remains unchanged: it is a "true" APO therefore cancellation of the aberration; excellent tonal rendering of colors; 2:1 macro ratio which is remarkable (provided that you are aware of the difficulties that arise as you go beyond 1:1 as for all other macro pushes); Pleasant to the touch and to use, the new focus ring has an optimal excursus and no longer restricted like its "100" cousin. Of course, we are talking about optics without electronics, which is pleonastic for a macro lens. If we really have to find a flaw, the lens hood is a bit "plastic", with a roughly knurled interior (forget the Zeiss "velvety sandblasting"): however, we are talking about optics on the market at € 550 and therefore it is a venial defect (especially since "once" the lens hoods were the terrain of optional and therefore dear grace...). Extremely competitive selling price, as mentioned, to be grabbed without doubts on the used (quite flourishing as always in the Macro pushed that involve several regrets :-) )
