Lensbaby launches a new Composer Pro II with Edge 35 Optic wide angle tilt lens


Lensbaby announced a new Composer Pro II with Edge 35 Optic wide angle tilt lens for Nikon F, Canon EF, Sony E, Fuji X and MFT mounts (additional info at Adorama and B&H):

The Edge 35 features a flat field design for sharp, accurate rendering and its unique optical design also enables producing a dramatic slice of focus surrounded by a smooth, blurred border. When coupled with the Composer Pro II, this slice of focus can be moved and rotated 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 width of the in-focus area and has an eight-blade diaphragm to further contribute to a smooth bokeh quality in the out-of-focus regions. The lens is constructed with nine glass elements in six groups, and each of the elements is multi-coated to resist flare and ghosting for high contrast, color-accurate imagery.

Features:

  • Aperture Range: f/3.5 to f/22
  • Lensbaby Optic Swap System
  • Metal Lens Body with Tilt up to 15°
  • Produces Slice of Focus
  • Multi-Coated Glass Elements
  • Minimum Focusing Distance: 7"
  • 8-Blade Diaphragm

Edge 35 Optic:

  • Wide-angle 35mm f/3.5 lens provides a comfortable, broad, and natural field of view.
  • Flat field rendering delivers a high degree of sharpness and, when tilted in the Composer II, a dramatic slice of focus is produced that is bordered by a smooth and even blur to isolate subjects with selective focus.
  • Besides adjusting exposure, the f/3.5 to f/22 aperture range allows you to control the size of the sweet spot of focus.
  • An eight-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth, pleasing bokeh quality.
  • Lens construction uses nine glass elements in six groups, and each of the elements are multi-coated to resist flare and ghosting for increased contrast and color accuracy.
