Additional optics are available as optional accessories. The Muse is for photographers who shoot fast and loose and The Control Freak is best for shooters who have a step-by-step approach," said Strong.Īll three lenses - the Composer, Muse, and Control Freak - feature the Lensbaby Optic Swap System and will ship with one optic installed. "While we expect the new Composer, with its smooth and precise operation, to be our most popular lens, we continue to offer the Muse and the Control Freak because each photographer has their own shooting style. Once locked, photographers can adjust the fine focus with a barrel focusing ring and fine tune the tilt by rotating its three metal posts. With The Control Freak, photographers compress to focus, bend to move the sweet spot, and then push a button to lock the lens in place. The Control Freak updates the Lensbaby 3G by adding the Lensbaby Optic Swap System.

The key update for the Muse is its new Lensbaby Optic Swap System. Photographers will still focus by compressing the lens and move the sweet spot by bending the flexible lens tubing. The Muse replaces the Original Lensbaby and Lensbaby 2.0 lenses while being very similar in appearance and functionality. With its greatly enhanced ease of use and more reliable results, the Composer will make it more intuitive for photographers to realize their personal creative visions." "We developed the Composer because our photographers are interested above all in creating powerful, interesting photos. "The Composer introduces a new level of ease and precision to selective focus photography," said Craig Strong, Lensbaby president and co-founder. The Composer's barrel focusing ring has a unique design that becomes more sensitive (requiring greater rotation to move the optic in and out) as you approach infinity, making it easer to focus on subjects from 10 feet to infinity. The Composer stays in the desired bent position without requiring a locking mechanism and features the new Lensbaby Optic Swap System.
Photographers do not squeeze the lens to focus, but can simply tilt the lens to a desired angle and then focus with a barrel focusing ring. The new Composer retains its position after being bent and is easy to use even with one hand. By bending the Lensbaby lens, the photographer moves the sharp area around the photo for customized creative effects. With the Composer, Lensbaby introduces a completely new lens, based on a ball and socket configuration that delivers smooth selective focus photography with unparalleled ease of use and greater precision.Īll Lensbaby lenses provide photographers with a new way to control depth of field by bringing one area of a photo into sharpest focus with that Sweet Spot™ surrounded by graduated blur.
The new Muse and the new Control Freak replace the current Original, Lensbaby 2.0, and Lensbaby 3G lenses, which will be phased out immediately. Each features the new Lensbaby Optic Swap system. Three new Lensbaby lenses - The Composer™, The Muse™ and The Control Freak™, - make up the new line of products. On September 23, 2008, Lensbaby, LLC (formerly known as Lensbabies, LLC) is launching an entire new system of selective focus lenses at the Photokina tradeshow in Cologne, Germany (Hall 5.2 C021).
