It would be super useful for those interested in wide angle macro photography. This is the last frontier of macro photography. 24mm is quite a good focal length for this as it allows plenty of background without the working distance being too short. On lenses like the Laowa 17mm macro, at macro distances the subject is almost touching the front element. AF is especially useful for a wide-angle macro as it can be difficult to see the precise plane of focus in the viewfinder. It will probably only be 1:2, but it would be great if it went 1:1. If it did there would be real interest in it. I can't say this will translate into a huge demand, but photographs from such a lens by skilled macro photographers are likely to be popular.Hm, 24mm macro sounds weird for me. Is this a usefull lense? I never heard of anything like that...
