Experience beautiful bokeh, the Petzval effect, and distortion loved by modern photographers who use vintage prime lenses and throw away Blender's perfect default camera.
As vintage lenses are coveted by photographers and known for bringing a certain charm to pictures with their imperfections, this Blender kit originally started from the success of the Jackimorphic Camera Pack will give you real vintage lenses to achieve a new level of photorealism in your renders.
Jack Toth, the creator of Jactual Cameras setup, believes that it demonstrates Blender Cycles' full power to emulate a true imaging system and you wouldn't want to go back to the default camera. Have a look at some renders below:
