I have a 135MM f2.8 Canon EOS soft focus lens which works similarly to the Dreamagon, however it has the automatic focus capability and is a great lens. You can vary the focus 3 ways to give the same effect as the Dreamagon and you can buy the Canon lens in the USA. I also have a Mamiya 150MM f4

The photos in the Dreamagon article in Shutterbug look quite a bit different from the majority of the samples on the web site. Many of the web sample images were shot a a higher f/ stop for a less "extreme' effect. It is when the lens is wide open (f/4) that the images are similar to zone plate.
