Velvet 56 SE is a 56mm f1.6 with 1:2 macro capabilities for SLR cameras from Lensbaby. Inspired by classic portrait lenses from the mid-20th century, this manual focus portrait lens delivers a soft, glowing effect at brighter apertures and beautifully sharp yet subtly unique images as you stop down. The gorgeous, velvety- tones give your digital images a film-like, organic quality. This incredibly versatile lens enables photographers to move seamlessly from shooting an environmental portrait, to capturing the finest details with focus as close as 5” from the front of the lens. Velvet 56 SE features an all- metal body with a beautiful clear- anodized finish; engraved aperture and focus markings; and smooth, dampened manual focus.
