Lensbaby, the brand known for its unusual creative optics, is teasing a new lens – and it’s the brand’s “most requested lens of all-time.” The US-based brand is teasing a new Lensbaby Twist 28, a compact pancake lens with Petzval-inspired twisty bokeh.
Slated for launch on April 2, the lens mixes a 28mm focal length with the swirling bokeh of the classic Petzval lens. Petzval lenses are known for backgrounds that appear to swirl around the subject. Lensbaby wants to bring more of that swirling background into the image by building a Twist with a wider focal length.
