I have a little. Not enough to add much to the discussion. I'll put it on my watch list and learn what I can.

As with everything, there is a lot of information online. Just Google it.

I have a Composer Pro 50 with macro adapters. There is a bit of a learning curve but I do enjoy using it for macro photography.
Check out Kathleen Clemons, she is the macro queen, using lensbaby often!

Sorry, but with the Lensbaby system, if you have to ask that question it is out of your realm. Learn to use your existing lens' and all their nuances and then you will begin to understand the Lensbaby system. It isn't just another lens.

Yes! Love it! I have the Composer Pro with the Sweet 35 optic. Also have the Soft Focus, Plastic and Double Glass optics and the Velvet 56 lens. There is definitely a learning curve but well worth the effort IMO. All of their products are manual focus, so do keep that in mind if you're considering. A great book (can be bought at Amazon and the Lensbaby site) is Lensbaby..Bending Your Perspective by Corey Hilz. He describes each product and gives tips on how to use the Lensbaby system.

I have a lensbaby composer pro with a several sweet lens for it, if you have a dx camera skip it works better on a full frame camera, like the way it works on my df, but not so on my d80 or the d300.
