Key Features
  • F-Mount Lens/FX Format
  • Aperture Range: f/2.8 to f/22
  • Lensbaby Optic Swap System

Specifically designed to produce creative selective focus effects, the Composer Pro II with Sweet 80 Optic from Lensbaby pairs the 80mm f/2.8 optic with a lens body for Nikon F-mount cameras. The Sweet 80 is a unique lens, which affords a distinct curved field of focus for producing a sweet spot of focus surrounded by smooth, blurred elements. When coupled with the Composer Pro II, this spot of focus can be moved anywhere within the image area, and changed in dimension, using up to 15° of tilt on the lens body. The optic also features a manual aperture for adjusting the size of the in-focus area and has a 12-blade diaphragm to further contribute to a smooth bokeh quality in the out-of-focus regions. The lens is constructed with four glass elements in two groups, and each of the elements are multi-coated to resist flare and ghosting for high contrast, color-accurate imagery.

what is the difference between the 'sweet' ...

what is the difference between the 'sweet' version and the 'edge' version?
Asked by: Jon
The main difference would be the shape of the blur/bokeh pattern created by the lens. The Lensbaby "Sweet" lenses create a rounder radial bokeh blur pattern, while the Lensbaby Edge creates a straight 'slice' (think more rectangular) bokeh blur pattern. The size and amount of the blur with both lenses can be controlled by the aperture you choose, and the strength and position of the blur can be controlled by the position of the lens.

question

I'm looking for a versatile medium telephto lens for both photo and video. The lensbaby is intriguing. Can I enlarge the in-focus area enough to use it as a true telephoto to capture video simply by stopping down the aperture? Has anyone experience using this lens for video?
Asked by: John
Hi John, This lens can be used for video but it is not a telephoto lens.
