Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lensbaby The Muse Double Glass for Canon EF mount Digital SLR Cameras
Customer Review: Puts fun back into photography. =)
Summary: 5 Stars
I had an impression of the whole Lensbaby thing as a gimmick, until I actually bought the Muse and tried it. Shooting at the local botanical garden was a lot of fun, much more so than if I'd simply taken my trusty 28-200mm zoom. The reason I bought the Muse was because it was the least expensive, so if it didn't get much use I wouldn't be out much money. That said, the Muse does require some skill to use properly as it cannot be positioned and locked in place like the more expensive versions. If you have short fingers, you may have trouble using it as focusing requires squeezing it toward the camera body (not to mention being able to tilt it at the same time if you want the tilt-shift effect). I use the index and middle fingers of both hands to work the lens and have no trouble doing it that way. To me, this quirky operation is part of what makes the Muse interesting to shoot with as it does require more skill than the others to operate. I'd also say that the squeeze/tilt/shoot method the Muse requires may make it faster to work with vs. the other Lensbabys once you get used to it. If the Muse sounds like too much of a hassle to you, then I'd recommend the next model up (the Composer). If you want to try something different with your photography and put some fun back into it, then a Lensbaby may do the trick.
Note: This review covers the version with the double-glass optic. I haven't tried any of the others yet.
