Key Features
- K-Mount Lens/Full-Frame Format
- Aperture Range: f/2.5 to f/22
- 1:2 Magnification, 2" Working Distance
- Soft Glowing Effect at Wide Apertures
A unique wide-angle prime marrying versatility and distinctness, the black Pentax K-mount Lensbaby Velvet 28mm f/2.5 is a lens with a look reminiscent of classic portrait optics, but with the broad field of view to suit outdoor, landscape, and even close-up subjects. Characterized by a smooth, glowing aesthetic, this lens's softness can be controlled by stopping down in order to produce a range of effects from soft and dreamy to sharper at smaller apertures. A 12-blade diaphragm also contributes to the lens's aesthetic and helps to produce a smooth bokeh quality to suit shallow depth of field imagery. Additionally, the manual focus design affords a working distance of 2" with a maximum reproduction ratio of 1:2 to benefit working with close-up subjects.

Wouldn't I be able to get the same effect using a filter on my 28mm lens?
It might be possible to find a similar filter but it would be hard. Specially an effect where the subject looks soft and the background highlights look rounded and bloomed.
