GIZMON Vivilens

Integration of Toy Camera and Digital Technology

“Vivilens” is an interchangeable lens for a mirrorless interchangeable lens camera equipped with a 22mm ultra-wide angle aspherical plastic lens from a toy camera. The toy camera’s unique photography style can now be enjoyed on your mirrorless interchangeable lens camera. Moreover, you can achieve the convenience and efficiency of digital technology simultaneously. The charm and attractiveness of the toy camera will be broadened to the digital camera world.

Real Toy Camera Photos on Digital Cameras

Using Vivilens on your mirrorless interchangeable lens camera is the best way to reproduce a toy camera world in digital format. Enjoy the authentic toy camera photos that Vivilens creates!

Many photography methods are available with Vivilens that the original toy camera did not have. For example, strobe/flashes, automatic exposure, long exposure photography with a tripod, multiple exposure capability using camera settings, and video shooting.

• Vivilens could be used as a 22mm wide-angle lens for full frame cameras and a 33mm wide-angle lens for APS cameras.
• When installed onto the EOS R series, magenta flares will occur due to the structure of its image sensor.
• When installed onto the APS cameras, strong vignetting cannot be expected.
• Retro film textured images can be produced by adjusting the shooting mode on the camera setting or using the photo editing app.

Techniques

By loosening the screw on the front lens unit, you can focus on the near object.

NOTE!! Do not loosen too much. The lens unit will fall out.

The front lens unit can be used on cameras supporting Leica L-Mount and L39 Mount.

NOTE!! We cannot provide the usage of these products.

Precautions

• Due to its large f-stop, dust on the camera’s image sensor easily causes dark spots to appear. Please check the image sensor carefully before shooting. If you find any dust on the sensor, please clean it with a cleaning kit or ask the manufacturer for a cleaning service.
• We make every effort to ensure that the Lens mount adapter could be equipped, but in the unlikely event of the product not being able to be screwed on properly onto a camera mount (too hard to install, or if you cannot hear the click sound when screwing the mountings), please do not put extra pressure. There are possibilities to damage the mount, camera body, and lens system. Please reach us at the following contact information. Our support team will promptly handle the situation.
