Laowa already produces several macro 'probe' lenses with high magnification ratios - but the new Laowa Aurogon FF 10-50x NAO.5 Supermicro APO is on another level.
Currently specific details are restricted to a Chinese spec sheet, but this appears to be a single lens that's supplied with four extension tubes. The focal length of the lens itself is unclear, but the supplied tubes enable 10x, 20x, 35x, or an incredible 50x magnification.
