Picture of the day: Reinventing the 19th century Petzval Lens Picture of the Day Gadget Master

2013/07/29

An occasional series, Picture of the Day will feature some new or unusual gadget that has caught my eye, in visual representation…

A Kickstarter project is reinventing the 19th century Petzval Lens for 21st century photographers and videographers…

The Lomography Petzval Portrait Lens is designed to work with Canon EF and Nikon F mount cameras.

They write:

In the 19th Century, the vast majority of photos were shot with the extremely popular Petzval lens. The lens was invented by Joseph Petzval in Vienna in 1840 and had a huge impact on the development of photography. Photos shot with a Petzval lens are immediately recognizable for their sharpness and crispness, strong color saturation, wonderful swirly bokeh effect, artful vignettes and narrow depth of field. The totally distinctive look of Petzval photos is all about the fantastic lens design that gives you the satisfaction of the instant optic experience that goes far beyond using photo editing software and filters.
