Expand your creativity and create memorable images with the Soft Focus II 50 Optic from Lensbaby. Compatible with the Optic Swap System and all Lensbaby lens bodies, including the Composer Pro and Composer Pro II, this lens offers a normal angle of view for full-frame image sensors. Featuring an aperture range of f/2.5 to f/22, this updated optic adds a 12-blade manually adjustable internal aperture to its unique and versatile drop-in magnetic aperture system. Opened up to its brighter aperture settings, the Soft Focus II 50 Optic creates dreamlike impressionistic images with a subdued color palette and a remarkably flat field of focus. Stopped down to f/8 or darker, the lens creates beautifully detailed and sharp images with a large central area of focus and out-of-focus edges on full-frame sensors.
