Daguerreotype Achromat 2.9/64 Art Lens Brass, Chrome Plated Edition
The Lomographic Society has launched the Daguerreotype Achromat 2.9/64 Art Lens Brass, Chrome Plated edition. The Daguerreotype Achromat 2.9/64 Art Lens has been designed by Lomography’s technicians based on an 1839 design – and condensed into a bold brass lens for modern analogue and digital cameras – available in Canon EF and Nikon F mounts. "Photographers and videographers can delve into an extensive variation of moods and special effect: silky soft focus at f/2.9, crisp sharp shots from f/5.6 onwards, and a focal length of 64mm," the society says. The Daguerreotype Achromat Lens works with a Waterhouse Aperture Plate system, which allows full creativity with depth of field and bokeh effects. Now, the much talked about Art Lens is back with a brand new design: a sleek chrome plating for a classic, timeless look that protects your brass lens from wear and tear. Priced at just €499, the Chrome Plated Daguerreotype Achromat is available now from the Lomography Online Shop and Gallery Stores worldwide.
