Little People so... I took a trip yesterday's morning to look for a widening conversion lens that will give me the least of vignetting on FF. Using my trusty Nikon F5 and the Lensbaby composer pro + the Step-up/Shader ring and looked for the ultimate widening conversion lens. Tested the Lensbaby X0.42 and the X0.6 Kenko x0.43 37mm thread Kenko x0.7 52mm thread and finely i ended up with the Kenko x0.55 52mm thread. the sweat spot gets almost to the sides of the frame b4 u c vignetting!!! The cons are that in aperture less then f4 you lose sharpness but gain a dreamy sensation. This image was taken with an f5.6 or the heart aperture i dont remember :|. http://lensbaby.com/forum/read.php?9,149538,149538#msg-149538 Fri, 24 May 2013 14:36:07 -0700 Phorum 5.2.8 http://lensbaby.com/forum/read.php?9,149538,149666#msg-149666 Re: Little People http://lensbaby.com/forum/read.php?9,149538,149666#msg-149666 The lensbaby system is obviously optimized to work with their own assecories.
I tried à similar conversion lens,attached to a cokin filter holder on a Carl zeiss 30 mm hasselblad lens,it worked,but the original wide angle lens,fitted to the filter bayonette mount on the 30 mm was better.]]> Superthor How Do You Do That?
