Like the product but having a hard time getting used to it. I'm sure with more practice it will get easier.

When the lensbaby was first introduced I was skeptical. I loved the effects that could be achieved yet feared the construction. After all changing an aperture disc can sound like a scary thing. Having rounded out my basic lens collection I decided it was time to take a chance and get a fun lens and this baby hasn't let me down! Changing the aperture couldn't be easier with the tool included with the lens. The magnet grabs the disc and lifts it out then you simply drop in a new one. Focusing at first, was quite the challenge but after an hour or so of playing around it became second nature and easy to achieve the look I wanted. It will never be a primary lens on my camera but it will be one I pop on at every shoot for a few shots at least. If you've met your needs with basic lenses then you can't go wrong with this inexpensive, fun lens that will spark your creativity.

Sure, the Muse looks and acts like the Original Lensbaby. But, like the Composerand the Control Freak, this little baby comes with Lensbaby's new Optic Swap system-offering artists an almost unlimited variety of looks and styles to capture their unique visions.
All Lensbaby lenses bring one area of a photo into sharpest focus with that Sweet Spot surrounded by gradually increasing blur. Photographers focus the Muse by compressing the lens and move the sweet spot by bending the flexible lens tubing.
The Double Glass optic has a tack sharp sweet spot with minimal diffusion at all aperture settings.
