Daguerreotype Achromat 2.9/64 Art Lens | A revival of a nearly two-centuries-old lost aesthetic, this vintage-inspired lens was built on a unique achromat design that bathed the world’s earliest photographs in a powerful, alluring veil of light. Allowing both ethereal soft focus from apertures below f/4, or razor-sharp results with deep contrasts from f/5.6 onwards, Daguerreotype imagery is infinitely astounding. Be an artist in your own right, adding aperture plates to craft delicately patterned backgrounds, enriching the depth of field and helping you to capture memories that will take your breath away. | |

Groundbreaking stuff. Yep, those pretty petals and rustling trees might have you practically foaming at the mouth, eager to capture a piece of spring magic but let‘s try to think a little bit outside the box, right? Crank the reverse switch and turn your delightful Daguerreotype into a macro lens with the Daguerreotype Achromat Reverse Macro Adapter. With a focusing distance of about 15 cm/6 in., you‘ve got the perfect opportunity to capture the season from a whole new perspective. | |
