The Lensbaby Double Glass II Optic is designed for creative photographers and videographers using MILC systems who want to experiment with artistic, selective focus and bokeh effects. As an upgraded classic, it offers a sophisticated 12-blade internal aperture for precise control, though users should be prepared for a fully manual shooting experience that requires patience to master.

No, the Double Glass II is a manual focus optic.
Yes, this optic is designed for both APS-C and Full Frame sensor formats.
The closest focusing distance is 0.581 meters.
Yes, it ships with nine specialty drop-in magnetic aperture disks.
It is compatible with all current and legacy Lensbaby Optic Swap lens bodies.
Verify that your manual focus is set correctly. Use the camera's focus peaking or magnification assist to ensure the desired subject point is sharp.
Ensure the magnetic aperture disk is pushed all the way into the slot and is oriented correctly relative to the light source.
Gently rotate the ring through its full range to ensure no debris has entered the mechanism. If stiffness persists, inspect for visible dust or grit.
To begin using the Double Glass II, simply unscrew your current optic from your Lensbaby Optic Swap lens body and gently insert the Double Glass II until it locks into place. Ensure the magnetic aperture disk is centered if you are using one of the specialty shapes. Since this is a manual focus lens, familiarize yourself with your camera's focus peaking settings to ensure accuracy. For care, store the optic in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use. Use a clean microfiber cloth to gently wipe the front and rear glass elements. Avoid using liquid cleaners directly on the glass to prevent residue buildup on the delicate internal mechanism.
