Congratulations! It's a Lensbaby!

[Axle]

So I got this interesting little piece of equipment from a friend as a gift...A Lensbaby Composer. It's actually rather neat, it may take a bit to get used to it. Some first results.







Feel free to share any shots you've taken with your lensbaby.

ooohhh! I've been thinking about one of those!

love love love that first one.

Me too.

I tried approximating the t/s effect by shooting with the lens halfway off the camera body. Worked pretty well, but I'm really not into the idea of sensor trashing. Somehow I'm thinking that one of these would be a much better option.

Cool shots, Axle. Have fun with yer new toy.

I posted a shot with this lens from the PMA show http://gallery.photographyreview.com...123489&cat=558

I think this one truly shows what the lensbaby can do.

ooohhh! I've been thinking about one of those!

I nearly bought one, but realised that there is nothing at the rear to prevent dust.
The composer has removable elements, glass singlet, glass doublet, plastic, and pinhole/zone plate. When you remove those elements there is a nice plastic tube straight into the body.
I would like to see a simple glass (or plastic) plate across the back to stop the dust getting into the body - my main problem with the older bodies I own.
It's a lensbaby, no need to worry about the quality implications
