We have played with Lensbaby since they first began, in fact, my first one was version 2.0, where you had to insert a disc for the aperture to be used and bend the optic with your fingers to obtain focus or bokeh.
They have come a long way and so have we.
A few (who is counting) years later, we got the Velvet 56mm, a soft image stand alone lens that comes in all mounts to fit your camera system. It was used extensively and then briefly on hold, since our light was shinning somewhere else.
By serendipity, we found the OMNI, not a lens but a series of “toys” like crystal wands and color gels that attach to your lens in an ingenious way and playtime has really arrived. It’s not gonna work to its best on the first day, but the good thing is that while you advance, your technique improves and you discover new ways to make it work to match your vision.
We were very pleased with these tools and are looking forward for new ideas on how to make them work for us.
In the mean time, enjoy life to the fullest, be kind and see you soon!
