Optic Unit Only. This rental only includes the Sweet 80 Optic. We’re renting it separately to give users the flexibility to choose which lens body and optic is right for them. See Recommended on the left-hand side of this page for compatible lens bodies in various mounts.
80mm Selective Focus Optic. This portrait-length optic uses a curved field of focus to create a blurred effect around the sharp in-focus spot that you select by tilting the Composer Pro’s ball-and-socket joint. You can also control the size of the “sweet spot” by adjusting aperture.
f/2.8 Maximum Aperture. The fast f/2.8 aperture enables decent low-light performance. The two-group/four multi-coated element optical formula produces surprisingly good image quality for a Lensbaby and provides a much more cost-friendly option than a tilt-shift lens. The twelve-blade internal aperture produces a circular bokeh at all stops that you can’t get out of many substantially more expensive pro lenses.
