      Comments about .42x Super Wide Angle Conversion Lens for All Lensbaby Lenses:

      This conversion lens screws into a Double Glass Optic or one of the similar optics. It is not compatible with the 'iris included' lenses like the sweet 35 or the Edge 80. It gives the same sort of effect that you would get with the Double Glass (or Single, Pinhole, etc) but with a wide angle view. Useful, but somewhat specialized.

          High quality and cheap prize.
          Vignetting effect if used on full format but interesting results. Cap included.

              Provides 21mm for lensbaby. It works with all the optics. It is a bit finicky to screw it on.

                Comments about .42x Super Wide Angle Conversion Lens for All Lensbaby Lenses:

                Works great and gives you a really wide view. FYI, if you shoot with a composer lens pushed to its furthest point, your image will get cropped by the curve of the lens (like a round fisheye look just on one side of your image). This can create some interesting treatments.

                Also came with a nice little pouch for throwing it in your bag.

                  This a cool addition to the lens baby family. The only down side is on film or full frame cameras. It makes the tilt shift unusable meaning the lens is so big that if you tilt or shift to move the center of focus you get the lens in the shot causing a servery vinyet.
