Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Bend it Baby! The Muse captures the spirit of Lensbaby photography, opening up a new realm of fun in focusing. Squeeze the Muse to focus, and bend your Sweet Spot around the photo.

Like the Composer and 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.

The Muse comes in two flavors. You can buy the Muse with the tack sharp Double Glass optic installed or get dreamy with the Plastic Optic version. Your choice!

How to Use the Muse

Get loose with the Muse. Focus by squeezing the focusing collar with your fingertips. Move the Sweet Spot of focus around the picture by bending the lens in any direction. A guaranteed out of the box experience.

To change your aperture, simply touch the tip of your Aperture Removal Tool to the aperture disk and lift it out. Then drop a new aperture disk into the lens. The disk will float above the optic in a shielded magnetic field.

4.0 out of 5 stars lens baby, June 26, 2009

By	K. Dodge "katdodge" (pacifica, ca.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

this is a super fun lens (for the price) once you get the hang of it (which is pretty easy). The only thing I would have done in hindsight is to spend more money and get one that locks down. it can be a challenge to hold the lens steady and click the shutter at the same time.
