Lensbabies are a new selective focus SLR lens that fit virtually all film and digital cameras.
They give a creative effect of blur around the edges of a sweet spot. What's great is the effect is made INSIDE the camera. Because of the flexible lens tubing, the sweet spot can be moved around allowing you to choose what you want in focus. This is much neater and cleaner and easier than putting vaseline on your lens or trying to make the effect in photoshop!
People who love holga or pinhole would really love this lens because of the ability to put it on a digital SLR len and because of the direct experience of being creative as you shoot.
2 versions of the lens are currently available:
1. The Original Lensbaby - Portrait and art photographers love this lens wide open becauseit has a beautifully diffused look.
2. Lensbaby 2.0 - A sharper sweet spot, even wide open and cool levitating apertures that are easier to exchange out.
