How about tilt/shift lenses for architecture? You can get a nice bump in IQ, without multiple shots that way and it works in a lot more conditions than pixel shift. Even a 40 something MP camera let's me print in great quality as big as I ever want. I don't need pixel shift to be able to print any bigger. Of course, YMMV.
E-mount has much higher quality lenses for landscape and architecture than Canon's T/S lenses. So much so that you're better off using them and focus stacking versus doing a tilt / shift. And of course you can use the Canon tilt/shift lenses on Sony cameras with an adapter - exactly the same way you use them on an R5.
Please don't hijack another discussion and take it in a different direction. That question was about what could you do to increase performance besides pixel shift. Tilt/shift is an obvious answer and it work in some situations in which stacking will not (when the conditions are changing fairly rapidly)--exactly the conditions in which pixel shift will not work.
No, tilt/shift does not work when conditions are changing rapidly. It's very slow and time consuming especially to do it well. Focus stacking is much faster than getting the focal plane properly adjusted for the scene and dialed in.
What does work is higher megapixel cameras with better dynamic range (not masked by RAW noise reduction like the R5) and no resolution-robbing antialias filter.
