📷 SONY ⍺7II (ILCE-7M2) with manual
LAOWA 105mm ƒ/2 (T/3.2) B-Dreamer STF

If you should wonder why I use a Commlite electronic adapter instead of a dumb one for this fully manual lens: I glued on a programmable EMF Dandelion chip, which sets the focal length for IBIS correctly and writes EXIF.
That's one of the reasons why I bought the Canon EF-mount version instead of the SONY E-mount one, the other being that I can use my Viltrox Speedbooster and Kenko 1.4x Teleplus with it...

- Canon EF mount
- full metal build (763g!!!)
- 11 elements in 8 groups
- "smooth trans focus" apodization filter
- 2 apertures: ƒ 9 blades, T 14 blades
- MF with 270° focus throw
- MFD 90cm ≙0.16x
- filter 67mm
- D 76mm x L 98.9mm
- 763g
- as I don't like the cheap included lens hood I use a Canon ET-73B (for the EF 100/2.8L Macro) which is longer and fits better :-)

This lens features two different diaphragms - a step-less 14-bladed “perfectly circular” T-stop aperture that works with the apodization element and a 9-bladed aperture which determines the lens’ effective aperture (ƒ-number) and the resulting depth-of-field.

The apodization element causes the loss of 1 .3 stops of light, but that's quite acceptable for the bokeh performance you get - especially compared to the SONY FE 100mm ƒ/2.8 STF GM OSS, which is a T/5.6 and loses two full stops!
