Lensbaby Obscura 50 Optic
Description
What actually is it? Well, it's not technically a lens. The Lensbaby Obscura Optic doesn't have lens elements or an aperture like a standard lens but offers a Pinhole, Zone Plate and Pinhole Sieve for you to easily switch between depending on your scene. These types of pinholes pose a truly creative and technical photographic challenge as it is not as simple snapping a photo as you usually would - There are fewer choices and those choices involve a delicate balancing act between light and dark and can produce unique flare and distortions that aren't possible to capture in-camera with standard lenses. Unlike most pinholes, Lensbaby's Obscura is made up of three layers of chrome with a 0.00014mm thickness deposited on 1.5mm thick glass, and then an anti-reflective coating. This optic has been specifically designed for use with the Lensbaby Optic Swap system.
