Argus 33mm f/0.95 CF APO overview
The Laowa Argus 33mm f/0.95 CF APO is a 33mm f/0.95 prime for APS-C cameras on Sony E-mount, Fujifilm X, Canon RF, Canon EF-M and Nikon Z, announced by Laowa in May 2021. 56 cameras we track take it without an adapter.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits low light. It is a weaker pick for fast-moving subjects and close-ups.
No store we track in Singapore lists it today. It is listed in the United States and Australia.
Worth comparing it with the Tokina atx-m 33mm F1.4, Fujifilm XF 33mm F1.4 R LM WR and Viltrox AF 33mm F1.4.
