New Canon RF tilt lens offers toy-town effects at an temptingly affordable price

GIZMON Miniature Tilt Lens

Japanese optical specialists Gizmon has released a Canon RF mount version of its Miniature Tilt lens. The 50mm f/1.6 lens is already available for. Sony E, Canon M and Fujiflm X mirrorless cameras.

The new full-frame model of the lens provides up to 15° of tilt in any direction - and is primarily used to add creative blur to an image. This so-called toy-town effect, allows you to create the impression of very limited depth of field - even when shooting broad views, and even with the aperture ring wide open. The effect is widely used when shooting still life photos or for city architecture.
