Submitted by cameradepartment on Fri, 2009-05-01 12:44
Focus the 3GPL by compressing and bending the lens manually. The area
of focus can be locked into a fixed position by pressing a button.
Then, using a traditional manual focus mechanism, you can follow focus
or fine-tune the focus at a fixed position. You can also bend and
compress the Lensbaby 3GPL freely—without locking—for a spontaneous,
selective focus effect.

Dream sequence, hallucination, drunken reverie, fading memory, or the vision of a man waking from a coma—the creative possibilities are endless with the Lensbaby 3GPL. Add a completely new dimension to your artistic toolbox with one simple lens.
The Lensbaby 3GPL works directly on 16mm or 35mm PL mount motion picture cameras. You can use SLR mount Lensbaby lenses on many video cameras, but you will need an SLR lens-to-video camera adapter.
