Product Description
The Edge 80 Optic is a 80mm, flat field of focus optic with a 12-blade
adjustable aperture and is compatible with all Lensbaby lens bodies. When
tilted, the Edge 80 delivers a slice of tack sharp focus through the image,
bordered by soft blur. When pointed straight ahead, the Edge 80 can be used just
like a high-quality straight lens.
When tilted, the size of that slice of focus depends upon the aperture used, and
the placement of the slice of focus depends upon the degree and direction of
tilt. Rotating the aperture dial on the front of the optic changes between
apertures from f/2.8 through f/22.
The Edge 80 also features a special close-focus function. Photographers can
extend the front of the optic to focus as close as 17" away from their subject.

The Edge 80 Optic is part of the Lensbaby Optic Swap System.
An incredibly versatile portrait 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. To better understand how tilt,
aperture and focus can all affect the Edge 80 image, visit the Edge 80 Optic

The Edge 80 has 46mm threads so it is not compatible with the Lensbaby 37mm
thread accessories.
Don't already own a Lensbaby lens body? You'll need one to put your Edge 80
into - we recommend the Composer Pro with Double Glass or the Composer Pro with
Sweet 35.
