How is this different from a Lensbaby Sweet 50mm lens?
Asked by: Andrew
The main difference is how they mount to the camera. The Sweet 50 requires a Composer Pro lens to attach to the camera while the Sol 45mm has a direct lens mount.

With a Nikon D750, do I use Aperture priority? Is this lens difficult to learn how to use?
Asked by: Lynn
Yes, you do. The instructions in the manual will tell you to use Aperture. I use the D750 also. Lensbaby are all manual focus so it can be a challenge to use. My eyes are not the best so I do have to work at the focusing. I just bought the Velvet 85 and it is challenging also. But that being said, I love this little lens! It really can be fun. Here is a shot I did with the Sol 45. https://www.flickr.com/photos/kellykayhorne/48922189672/in/dateposted/

Is it avalable for the canon mirrorless?
Asked by: Daphne
I do believe it comes as an RF mount for canon mirrorless. You might check the lensbaby website for confirmation. My old lensbaby canon ef lenses do work with the canon EF/RF adaptor. You have to set the camera to shoot without a lens for the shutter to release.
