Great lensbaby lens. Not difficult to use and a lot of fun. Great if you are looking for something different to add to your kit.

It does give good Bokeh, but I have not been in a good situation to see if will give the twisty Bokeh of the packaging yet. Regardless of that, it is still a decent lens.

Super fun lens that puts out high quality photos with a whimsical feel. I had a blast using it during a rare Western Washington snowstorm and look forward to using it in lots of other settings to add a unique flair to my portraits. The manual focus will take some getting used to, but it's worth it for such a great and fairly priced lens.

I bought this lens even though the LensBaby website does not recommend it on anything other than a full frame camera. I did not notice that until after I put the order in but thought I would give it a try anyway. I have a attached a shot I took at a flamingo. I am very satisfied with the twisty bokeh that I was able to capture on Canon 80D. I feel this lens would give satisfactory results on any crop sensor Canon camera.

I am really enjoying my Lensbaby Twist 60. It seems well made and, when used properly, creates some killer, vintage looking pictures. The fit and finish is good, and it’s seen a number of portrait sessions as well as a few bar mitzvahs (just for kicks), and is easy to use once you wrap your mind around going back to manual focus. For the price it can’t be beat. What I don’t like, and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5, is the complete lack of electronics. I don’t want AF or anything like that, but it seems to me that, in this day and age of electronic everything, it’s not too much to ask for something to relay information like lens type and aperture back to the camera isn’t a very tall order. As a pro who spends way too much time editing, basic metadata would be helpful. That aside, the Twist 60 is lots of fun. It’s a reasonably sharp lens for its type (certainly sharper than my Petzval 85), and it renders color well. Def worth the price.

I was hesitant on buying this lens, but when it was on sale I decided to buy it. I should have bought it soon. It's sharp in the center, the edges create the twisty blur, and vignette. Greats great on my Sony A7II. In most pictures taken at 2.5 you can see the swirl. Depending on the background it goes from slight to obvious.

Is a fun lens. Just like any LensBaby this lens is fun, but also expensive for what it is.

Free your subjects from their background with Twist 60, a 60mm f/2.5 lens for full frame SLR and Mirrorless cameras that will help you discover the essence of your subject - adding magic and emotion to your portraits, still life images and more.
Twist 60 helps you draw extra attention to your subjects by separating them from their background with delicious twisty, swirly blur. True to an 1840 design by Joseph Petzval, this lens reveals striking separation between subjects and their background, a quality that modern lens designs lack.
Shooting at bright apertures maximizes the effect and produces a subtle vignette that calls further attention to anything you place within the large central area of focus, for a timeless, vintage look. As you stop down the area of focus gets larger while still creating subtle swirling at the edges.
Twist 60 is a black anodized metal-bodied, non-tilting lens with gold anodized accents that mounts directly to your camera. Available in mounts for Canon EF, Nikon F and Sony E, it is recommended for use on full frame cameras only.
Twist 60 Optic is part of the Optic Swap System and is also available as an individual optic for use with full frame cameras. When using Twist 60 Optic in a tilting lens body, keep the lens pointed straight ahead for best results.
