Item arrived like the box been opened and repackaged. But overall, seemed like a great lens. Ordered a separate 35mm optic with a filter adapter. 5 out of 5 for build and usability.

Love it

I have a number of other Lensbaby products but this has to be my favourite. A slice of sharp focus, surrounded by gorgeous blur...would definitely recommend to anyone...

How much smaller is the focal plane of this lens ...

How much smaller is the focal plane of this lens on a crop sensor camera than it is on a full frame camera?
Asked by: Seth
A 50mm lens on a Canon crop sensor camera would be roughly equal to using an 80mm lens if you are comparing it to 35mm film or a full frame sensor camera. It does not matter if it is a Lensbaby 50mm or a Canon 50mm or a Canon 18-55mm set to the 50mm range. They will all have the same focal length.

question

Does this lensbaby come with bottom and top lens dust caps?
Asked by: Albert
Yes, there is a lens cap for the optic and a contacts cover for the back part of the composer pro. However, there is no cap for the back of the optic when removed from the composer pro, and there is no storage case of the optic like I have received when I have purchased other optics. I thought that was a bit strange.

question

I have the composer pro ii in both canon and fuji mounts, and in both the lens is very hard to tilt even with the ring loosened. is this normal?
Asked by: Christie
Hi Christie. I just tested my composer pro II to see if i had the same problem - And i don't! What i did noticed though, is that the ring has an opposite logic when tightening and loosening, so have you tried max it the other way? Can you move it when the ring is approx. in the middle? In my opinion you should be able to, without being worried about breaking something.Hope you find a solution :)
