The Edge 80 Optic is an 80mm f/2.8 flat field of focus optic with a 12-blade adjustable aperture and is perfect for portraits. Edge 80 must be used in a Lensbaby lens body.
When tilted, Edge 80 delivers a slice of tack sharp focus through the image, bordered by a soft blur. When pointed straight ahead, Edge 80 can be used like a straight lens.
Edge 80 can also be used to great effect in any situation that lends itself to selective focus – from food photography to giving landscapes a “miniature” appearance.
Part of the Lensbaby Optic Swap System.
Tilt horizontally, vertically, or diagonally to place your slice of focus within the image. Rotate the aperture dial on the front of the optic to change the width of your slice of focus. Rotate the focus ring to adjust your focus along the image plane.
The Edge 80 also features a special close-focus function. Extend the front of the optic to focus as close as 17” away from your subject.
