Petzval 58 Bokeh Control Art Lens
17 Apr 2016 - petzval, objektiv

It has finally arrived, Lomography's 58mm/f1.9 "Bokeh Control" art lens. Like the 85mm before it it has some really interesting distortions to create that out of focus motion, but the 58mm version has a ring where you can control just how much of the effect you want.
Here's the box it came in
And here's what came with it, a set of waterhouse apertures, a small booklet and the lens. Not shown are a set of more artistic apertures and a ND filter.
Here's the lens next to the 85mm version. Smaller but not by much.
And here it is mounted on my Nokia Df, looking good.
Ok, one more pic.
And this is a first test image. It's not enough green outside to take any interesting outside photos yet. This shot is at f1.9 and the effect is quite noticeable as soon as something is out of focus and really wild in the background. More shots is sure to come.
