Lensbaby Velvet 28 28mm f/2.5 Lens
Lensbaby’s new Velvet 28 prime wide-angle lens combines versatility with distinctiveness in a unique package. On the outside, its design may remind you of classic portrait lenses. But on the inside, you’ll find that this superb lens is perfect for shooting outdoor, landscape, and close-up shots - thanks to its extensive field of view. The Velvet 28 features an f/2.5 maximum aperture, which balances brightness and depth of field control and keeping the lens sleek. And if you’re capturing close-ups, this lens has a manual focus design with a 2” working distance and a 1:2 reproduction ratio. The Velvet 28 produces a smooth and vivid softness as well. You can stop down to control this softness, which results in soft, dreamy effects to sharper details when you’re working at smaller apertures. Plus, this lens boasts a 12-blade diaphragm that’s an excellent addition to its aesthetic. It even helps create smooth bokeh for photos with shallow depth of field. Lensbaby also incorporated multi-coated elements in the Velvet 28: they offer flare resistance and help render accurate color in intense light. The Velvet 28 is compatible with an extensive range of DSLR and mirrorless systems, from Canon to Sony cameras.
