Lensbaby Composer Pro II with Soft Focus II Optic for Nikon Z

Take your photography to the next level with the Composer Pro II with Soft Focus II Optic for Nikon Z. This innovative lens, a product of Lensbaby's renowned Optic Swap System, is an upgraded version of the highly popular original Soft Focus optic. It boasts an impressive aperture range from f/2.5 to f/22, offering unparalleled versatility to both professional and amateur photographers.

The Soft Focus II optic is compatible with all of Lensbaby's current and legacy Optic Swap lens bodies, making it a versatile addition to any photography kit. One of its standout features is the 12-blade manually adjustable internal aperture, an enhancement over its predecessor. This feature is part of the lens's unique and versatile drop-in magnetic aperture system, which allows for a wide range of creative possibilities.

When used at its brightest aperture settings, the Soft Focus II optic produces impressionistic images with a layer of subtle sharp detail beneath. It renders a color palette that leans towards soft pastels at brighter apertures, and a remarkably flat field of focus. This optic enables you to capture images that are impossible to achieve with any other lens.

When stopped down to f/8 or darker, the Soft Focus II optic delivers beautifully detailed, traditionally sharp images. It offers a large central area of focus and out-of-focus edges on full-frame sensors and 35mm film, providing a unique aesthetic to your photos. The internal 12-blade aperture, which is adjusted by turning the front of the optic, allows for quick variability of the optical effect. This means you can easily switch from impressionistic and full of glow to contrasty and sharp images, offering a broad spectrum of creative possibilities.

In summary, the Composer Pro II with Soft Focus II Optic for Nikon Z is a versatile, high-quality lens that allows photographers to explore a wide range of visual effects and styles.
