Lensbaby Scout with Fisheye, Manual Focus Fisheye SLR Camera Lens for Sony Alpha

I have tried several different types of shots. So far my favorite is of my dog nose to nose with the lens...we've all seen this kind of shot, just never dreamed I'd be able to do it! Anything with straight lines in it, like trees or buildings is fun, too as it makes the lines of a picture look rounded.

This lens is a lot of fun, and you can swap the other Lensbaby optics (Glass, Double Glass, Plastic, Pinhole/Lensplate, etc.) into this. I like it because it has a straight body, whereas the other lensbaby bodies are angled. It is lightweight and well-built. My only knock is that it's manual-focus only.

The lensbaby fisheye is my first manual focus lens, so it has been challenging to begin using. However, it is exactly as advertised...it is an affordable, fun, and unique lens that I am happy to have added to my collection. Further, the facts that I will be able to add other lensbaby optics, as they are interchangeable, will be fun to explore in the future.

I recently purchased the Lensbaby Scout, Manual Focus Fisheye SLR Camera Lens for Nikon F. This little lens comes with an interchangeable fisheye lens and is making me see things very differently. It focus from 1/2" an inch & weights next to nothing, so it may take a little getting use to if you normally have a larger tele/zoom lens attached to your camera. I've been on two outings & have taken about 170 pictures using it. These outings were for the most part experimental to learn how the lens behaves and how I should be "seeing" subjects. Truth be told, from the super close focus of macro to funky landscapes, I haven't had this much fun with a new lens in a long time!
