Lensbaby Spark How to

See in a new way with the Lensbaby Spark. To get started attach the lens then adjust your view finder's focus. Next, put your camera in manual mode. It's okay if your display shows F 00 or F -- because your aperture is already set in the lens. Set your ISO according to how much light you have. Low ISOs are best for bright light, high ISOs are best for darker lighting conditions. Use your camera's light meter to help you choose a shutter speed. Take a test shot and use your LCD screen to preview the image or to check the histogram. If you're using the histogram try to get the lines to peak near the middle of the graph. If your image is too dark then you need to slow down your shutter speed or increase your ISO. If the image is too bright then you need to speed up your shutter speed or decrease your ISO. To focus point your lens and squeeze. Squeeze a little for closer items and a lot for things far away. If you're having trouble try switching to live view. Once you find your sweet spot of focus you can tilt the lens to move the sweet spot anywhere in the frame.
