Lensbaby Twist 60 Optic Overview

Learn from B&H Experts

From Manufacturer

Separate your subject from the background while creating a swirled blur around the edges with the Lensbaby Twist 60. Compatible with the Optic Swap System, this full-frame 60mm f/2.5 lens features an internal 12-blade diaphragm for smooth out-of-focus areas. You can manually change the aperture from f/2.5 to f/22 utilizing the dial on the front of the lens as well as manually adjust the focus as close as 18" from your subject. The Twist 60 offers 46mm front threads for any filters you would like to use to further enhance your image.

The Twist 60 works best and is recommended for use with full frame cameras. Much of the swirled blur gets lost when using the optic with an APS-C sensor.

Lensbaby Twist 60 Optic Reviews

Now one of my favorite Lensbabies

By Nancy
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2024-07-01

I have some other Lensbabies (Double Glass, Sweet 35, Velvet 85, Sol 45) so I told myself I didn't need the Twist. However, it is lots of fun and I seemed to get a pretty cool effect right out of the box.

great addition

question

What's the difference between the Twist 60 Optic and the Twist 60?
Asked by: Tracy Ellen
If you do not have any of our other lens bodies, I would recommend the Twist 60 sold in a straight lens body. If you already own a Composer Pro or Scout, you can purchase the Twist 60 Optic separately and use it in that, pointed straight ahead for best results.

when we amount it (with composer pro II) to a Fuji-X camera (ASP-C sensor), do we lose a great deal of the out of focus bokeh?
