This is a fun compact lens that’s great for dance floor photos. Soft focus along the edges- it works great with a direct flash for a vintage petzal look.

The Lensbaby Twist really does the job. It has a great twist. And it’s very lightweight. It’s a great addition to the classic Olympus lenses because it pairs perfectly with Olympus Cameras.
