Lensbaby Spark 2.0 with Sweet 50 Optic for Micro Four Thirds
Key Features
  • Micro Four Thirds System
  • Aperture Range: f/2.5 to f/22
  • Lensbaby Optic Swap System
  • Flexible Body with Tilt up to 30°
Reminiscent of the very first Lensbaby lens, the Spark 2.0 is a flexible lens body designed for use with Micro Four Thirds-mount cameras and to be used in conjunction with the Optic Swap System. This Spark 2.0 is delivered with the Sweet 50 optic, which provides a clear sweet spot of sharp focus that is surrounded by a smooth blur, which can be adjusted depending on how the lens body is positioned. The Spark 2.0's accordion-like design permits nearly unrestricted tilt range, up to 30° in any direction, and requires the distinct squeeze-to-focus movement to manually adjust focus. The Spark 2.0 and Sweet 50 combination also avails an f/2.5-22 adjustable aperture range, 12-blade diaphragm, and a minimum focusing distance of 1.1' for working with close-up subjects.

Spark 2.0
  • Micro Four Thirds lens mount.
  • Flexible, accordion-like body design resembles the Original Lensbaby from 2004 and enables tilting the optic up to ~30° in any direction.
  • Unique squeeze-to-focus, squeeze-to-tilt design requires a fun "dance-like" process of achieving sharp, selective focus with creative distortions and blur.
  • Accepts various optics from the Optic Swap System.
  • Permits focusing as close as 1.1' away.
  • Metal lens mount for improved durability and rigidity.
Sweet 50 Optic
  • Portrait-length 50mm lens provides a 100mm-equivalent focal length that offers a comfortable, slightly narrow field of view.
  • Unique rendering delivers a precise sweet spot of focus surrounding by a characteristic blur. The quality, sharpness, and size of the in-focus area can be controlled by adjusting the lens body.
  • Besides adjusting exposure, the f/2.5 to f/22 aperture range can also be used to adjust the size of the sweet spot of focus.
  • A 12-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth, pleasing bokeh quality.
  • Doublet lens construction uses two elements in one group, and both elements have a broadband, anti-reflective multi-coating to resist flare and ghosting for increased contrast and color accuracy.

Lensbaby Sweet 50 Reviews

This lens is a lot of fun.

This does have a learning curve and requires practice to use to get good results. Take several shots as not all come out as expected. It is difficult to get an exact focus on close up pictures. The special effects are not as noticeable close up as they are for medium distance shot. John Grotz

good option for more selective focus

I was looking for a low cost shift and tilt capable lens for my Panasonic GH5s and have found this to be a more than suitable option. It will take a while for you to master focus and hitting the sweet spot with the lens so you will need to practice with the lens as soon as you get it out of the box. But it works and it is sharp where you want it to be and soft where you to select it to be so you can't ask for much more at that price.
