Why Stock Photos?
The short answer is that we use stock photos on some listings to save us time and to save you money. The longer answer is that we love to take photos of each and every lens, camera, and accessory, but doing so takes a lot of time and makes it difficult to get everything listed. So, we decided to compromise: take gorgeous photos of some things and charge a little more for them, and use stock photos for other items and charge a little less for those, all else equal.
The items listed here were tested thoroughly by our trained technicians. If they observed any significant flaws, you’ll see them detailed above. If the items listed here are exceptionally awesome, you’ll see that noted above too. Regardless, please remember this is a used item and it’s bound to have at least a microscopic imperfection.
If you're interested in purchasing an item with specific photos and ratings, we don’t blame you one bit. Please visit one of our Exposed! listings (if available), usually marked with a green badge. If none are currently available, by all means, contact us.

The Venus Optics Laowa 15mm f/4 Macro for Canon
The Venus Optics Laowa 15mm f/4 Macro is a third-party specialty lens designed for Canon EF-mount cameras and camcorders. Key features include:
Ultra-Wide 1:1 Macro. This unique lens offers 1:1 macro magnification with an ultra-wide perspective. This is great for accentuating exaggerated perspectives. It provides full-frame coverage for macro compatibility, and its minimum focus distance of 4.7" (0.2" working distance) makes shooting in extremely tight spaces possible.
Perspective Control. In addition to being a true 1:1 macro lens, the Venus 15mm Macro features +/- 6mm of vertical-shift adjustment with APS-C sensor coverage. Seeing as the lens focuses out to infinity, this makes it an ideal candidate for architectural use.
Optics. The nine-group/twelve-element optical formula was designed to minimize distortion. Internal focusing helps in that regard in addition to preventing barrel extension. The nearly circular 14-blade aperture renders a creamy background blur.
Fully Manual. With both manual focus and manual aperture rings, the lens provides no electrical communication with the camera. Therefore, lens information is not included in EXIF data.Are we out of stock?
