p.5 #1Alternative Tilt & Shift Thread
Here's one with the Canon 45mm TS-E on a 5D body, taken from the Isle of Wight Ferry on a day out, so just hand-held, and no record of degree or angle of tilt. Colours tweaked fairly savagely in Lightroom using Velvia style settings.

Leeuwtje - very nice photos with superrotator. I've wanted to get one of those, especially the 35 f/2.8, for a long time.

Thanks Metagraphica. It indeed is a nice lens.
I'm not sure if they still make the lens.

That last one is gorgeous! I wish I had shot it. There is much to be said for waiting for the right light. I wish I had more time for that.

+1 Leeuwtje, I love that last image.

Here are a couple taken with the 75mm Pentax 645 and a Mirex, shift only.
The spots are snowflakes not dust

Mike, Very nice panorama. Is that on your 5d2 or ds3?

Just picked up a Hartblei 65mm SuperRotator...can't wait til it gets here.

Edd, I read your thread about the conversion with great interest. Thanks for that. Amazing how all this 'old' glass is being given new life.

Both your pics above are beautiful. Perfect focus point/plane in the 1st one. It really makes the composition.
The tilt effect in the second one really draws me in. I feel just like I am traveling down that trail on skis.

Thanks again for sharing,
Jason Lambert

Hi Jason,

Thank you for the comments, much appreciated. I am in the process of converting a FDn 135mm f2.8 and an FD 2x B-version TC this week, to EOS, so the fun continues (until the FD box is empty... ).

Regards,

Edd

Hi,

I know this is a video, but a very nice application of a tilt-shift lens in Bangkok, Thailand.

Thanks. It was the 1ds3, I think the 5d2 woulld have banded in that light.

Here's another one about 30 mins earlier from a different position before they moved the front crane. I thnk I prefer this rendering;

This thread is very dangerous!
Shots like Leeuwtje's last one make me want to buy a new Hartblei 40 SuperRotator.
It is only 4895 euros + tax and shipping!
Going insane ...
Wish lensrentals would get one of these so I could just rent it.

Wayne, this entire Alt forum is very dangerous but, yes, these tilt/shift examples are extremely compelling.
So compelling in fact that I've now purchased a Hartblei 65 SuperRotator and an OM 24 Shift in the past 2 days.
I can't wait to get my hands on them and try them out.

Yes, look forward to seeing shots with your Hartblei 65.Should be sweet.
I have 17L TS-E which I love and can use it with 1.4 TC to get 24 in a pinch.
Looking for some zeiss glass based T/S lens in the 40-80 range for landscape.

Yeah, the new Hartblei's with the Zeiss glass look amazing. I looked at one when I was New York for PDN, didn't get a chance to try it out though.
