Lensbabies

[dab_20]

I know there are a few people here who are pretty into photography. Do any of you happen to have a lensbaby... or looked into them? I was thinking about getting a macro lens but I think I'm going to get a Lensbaby 2.0 instead! I'm pretty excited about it. I think the 2.0 is about $150, the newer version (3G) is more like 400 dollars.

For those of you who do not know what lensbabies are and you're interested... go to www.lensbabies.com.

Just curious!

I have looked into the lensbaby and it is on my list. LOL I get most of my photography 'needs' from Adorama. You can get the lensbaby 3G for $269.95 from them with free shipping. Here is the link

I just ordered some filters from them at a very good price and I'm quite impressed with them.

Next on my list is a wide angle and then the lensbaby 3G. We (hubby and I) have decided to try to pick up one thing a month or every couple of months depending on the price.

Thank you for the reply. Good, thanks for the link that's the cheapest I've seen the 3G so far. Do you think it's worth getting a 3G compared to a 2.0 for the money?

I guess that depends on what your needs are. If you want something that is quick and easy to use with no fuss then the 2.0 is probably more what you are looking for. But the 2.0 has a much smaller aperture range and there is no fine focus either. I think it is just the matter of what you prefer. I was going to get the 2.0 but while I was procrastinating the 3G came out and I will give that a go as it seems more suited to what I want.

Yeah, I think I will go for the 3G. Thanks!

I have never heard of that, but it looks really neat. I don't have DSLR camera though. Since I recently got a job I am going to buy myself a new regular digital one then go for the DSLR, as the digital one I have now just isn't cutting it. I HATE this camera I have with a burning passion. If I were you, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. That looks totally awesome.
