Lensbaby Optic Swap Macro Collection for Micro Four Thirds

Just when you thought macro photography had reached its limits, the Lensbaby Optic Swap Macro Collection for Micro Four Thirds cameras redefines the boundaries of close-up imagery. This innovative collection is designed for photographers who desire to delve into the minute details of their subjects, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary with unparalleled precision and creativity.

The Composer Pro II, included in this collection, serves as the foundation for the Optic Swap powerhouse optics - the Sweet 80 and Edge 80. Both optics boast a 19" working distance at minimum focus when used without macro accessories, allowing for a comfortable space between the lens and the subject. When paired with the included +1, +2, and +4 anti-reflective multi-coated macro filters, these optics achieve a maximum magnification greater than 1:1, with a minimum working distance shrinking to a mere 3.25 inches. This versatility enables photographers to capture the tiniest of details with stunning clarity.

The Sweet 80 Optic is a marvel for those seeking to create compositions with a dramatic depth of field. This 80mm f/2.8 tilt lens is renowned for its "sweet spot" effect, offering tack-sharp focus on the subject while enveloping it in a mesmerizing, streaky bokeh. The 12 aperture blades ensure a seamless transition from sharp to soft, making the Sweet 80 Optic a favorite for portrait photographers and anyone pursuing selective focus at a longer focal length. As a member of the Optic Swap System, the Sweet 80 Optic requires a Composer series lens body for use.

The Edge 80 Optic is a testament to high-quality, versatile macro photography. This 80mm flat field of focus optic features a 12-blade adjustable aperture and is compatible with all Lensbaby lens bodies. When tilted, it produces a slice of tack-sharp focus bordered by a soft blur, which can be manipulated by adjusting the aperture and tilt direction. The Edge 80 also includes a special close-focus feature, allowing photographers to focus as close as 17" from their subject, and can be further enhanced with the Lensbaby Macro Converter for even closer shots. Whether it's for selective focus in food photography or creating a "miniature" effect in landscapes, the Edge 80 Optic is a durable and user-friendly tool for any macro photography enthusiast.

The collection is neatly organized in the Small Optic Swap System Case, a custom-designed, durable hard case with a nylon exterior. The case's custom-molded insert can accommodate up to two lens bodies and six Optic Swap optics, ensuring your equipment is secure and protected. The interior egg crate lining provides additional stability, while the nylon strap handle with a rubber grip minimizes the risk of accidental drops.

The Lensbaby Optic Swap Macro Collection for Micro Four Thirds is the ultimate solution for photographers seeking to expand their creative horizons in macro photography. With its comprehensive range of lenses and accessories, this collection invites you to explore the world in exquisite detail, making it a user-friendly and indispensable addition to any photographer's toolkit.
