This made me lead to look into old primes such as the Nikon AIS 35mm and 50mm, this is because of it's organic look that you won't get from "digital" lenses, which can enhance the effect of lens whacking. But I will get into these lenses in the near future.
I liked the effect, of how the lens flair is all in camera and can give that tilt shift look. I think for anybody wanting that look, tilt shift can be budget way of gaining it. Although it will take a lot of practice to achieve.

Here's a video from the Philip Bloom post of James Miller "Romance of the Light."
So after, looking at a few lens whacking videos, I wanted to create my own.
I remember, my dad owning an old Minolta SLR with two lens. After finding it, I took my 60D and started playing with. It doesn't matter, if the lens is not mounted on the body. To gain the effect, some light must be exposed to the back of the lens to get that flair. (Please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not that technical and still learning the craft).
This what I used.
Minolta 35mm f/2.8 and the Canon EOS 60D.
And here's my test with my nephew, Jaxon.
From next week, I will be doing series of Lens Whacking video. I will post them up on Facebook first.
