Lensbaby for better DSLR movie making with 500D, 550D, 7D, 5D mark11, 1D mark4
Friday, July 9, 2010
The Lensbaby line for DSLR users consists of 3 Creative Effects lenses with 6 optics available to swap in an out. The lenses are compatible with Canon, Nikon, Sony, Pentax and 4/3’s mount DSLR cameras. The ideal Lensbaby lens for DSLR movie makers is the Control Freak: the user can compress and bend the lens to find the desired Sweet Spot, and then lock it in place with the push of a button. Once locked, focus can be fine tuned using the barrel focusing ring and adjust the tilt with the Control Freak’s three metal posts.
The Control Freak comes with the Double Glass Optic installed. Other available optics include: Single Glass Optic, Plastic Optic, Pinhole / Zone Plate, Soft Focus, and Fisheye Optic.
The Lensbaby is a low-cost alternative for providing tilt and swing for many DSLR cameras, although the effect is somewhat different from that of conventional tilt-shift lenses. Because of the simple optical design, there is significant curvature of field, and sharp focus is limited to a region near the lens axis. The system is however a great value considering the varied amount of in-camera effects that can be achieved.
Features:
•Provides filmmakers with the ability to shoot both free-hand and locked down
•Compatible with all Lensbaby Optic Swap System optics
•Manual Focus
•Interchangeable levitating aperture discs (f/2 – f/22)
•Three metal rods to fine tun tilt
