Lensbaby Pro Kit for Nikon F
Overview
Description
The Lensbaby Pro Kit for Nikon F includes three of our most popular lenses – the Velvet 85, Burnside 35, and Twist 60 – all in a custom Lensbaby printed Nanuk 910 hard case.
Create soulful portraits with our Velvet 85 art lens. Use this 85mm f/1.8 lens to create impressionistic masterpieces with a velvety glow at bright apertures, straight out of camera. Use darker apertures to bypass glow and make images with a crisp, film-like aesthetic. Building on the strengths of our bestselling Velvet 56 lens, Velvet 85 combines lustrous skin tones with the added compression and buttery smooth bokeh found in the best 85mm portrait lenses. Use its macro capabilities to capture significant details with new life. The Velvet 85 design features a solid heft and smooth, dampened manual focus.
Use the f/2.8 Burnside 35 lens to set your work apart. Create images with a bright central area of sharp focus and striking color rendition — surrounded by subtle, swirling bokeh and vignette. With its wide 35mm focal length, Burnside 35 gives you a wide to normal view of a scene. Use this classic focal length to create stunning street and environmental portrait photos. The swirly bokeh and vignette give you added control to direct the viewer’s eye to the most important part of the photo. For landscape photographers, Burnside 35 gives you the ability to try something new and experiment with swirling bokeh, painterly edge softness, and vignette – while being versatile enough to let you capture more traditional landscape imagery as well.
Free your subjects from their background with delicious twisty, swirly blur with the f/2.5 60mm Twist 60 lens. Twist 60’s vignette calls further attention to anything you place within the large central area of focus, for a timeless, vintage look. True to an 1840 design by Joseph Petzval, this lens reveals striking separation between subjects and their background, a quality that modern lens designs lack. Twist 60 is a metal-bodied, non-tilting lens and is recommended for use on full frame cameras only.
Features
Short telephoto portrait-length lens is designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount DSLRs, however it can also be used with DX models where it provides a 127.5mm equivalent focal length.
Bright f/1.8 maximum aperture affords greater control over depth of field for working with shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques, and also benefits working in low-light conditions.
Inspired by classic portrait lenses from the mid-20th century, this lens is designed to produce an ethereal glowing quality with soft, smooth tonality that is well-suited to portraiture.
Softness can be controlled by stopping-down the lens: when stopped-down to f/16, the image exhibits a smooth quality with greater central sharpness.
A working distance of 9.5" along with a 1:2 reproduction ratio suits working with close-up subjects.
Manual focus design with a smooth, dampened focusing movement is complemented by engraved focus distance indicators.
A 12-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth bokeh quality that is ideal for selective focus imagery.
General wide-angle prime is designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount DSLRs, however can also be used with DX models where it provides a 52.5mm equivalent focal length.
Unique optical design features six multi-coated elements in four groups, and is designed to produce imagery with a large area of central sharpness surrounded by distinct, swirly bokeh and pronounced vignetting.
Dual diaphragm design incorporates a primary six-blade diaphragm to control exposure and to introduce the desired amount of swirly out of focus in the image, with larger apertures producing the smallest in-focus area and most swirl and smaller apertures producing a larger in-focus area with minimal swirl.
Secondary eight-blade diaphragm can be adjusted using the bronze effect slider on the side of the lens barrel, and is used to control the amount of vignetting as well as the quality of the bokeh in the out-of-focus areas of the image. When wide open, the swirl quality will be softer and when closed down, there will be greater detail in the swirl and more vignetting will be apparent.
Manual focus design with a smooth, dampened focusing movement is complemented by engraved focus distance indicators.
