I am not talking about large format -- but rather tilt/shift lenses for SLR.

Anyone here a subscriber to one of the many popular T/S or PC-E lenses available. I am about to join the club.

I've got the older Nikon 85mm PC along with two other members of TPMG. Great lens.

I bought a TS-E 45mm f/2.8 for Christmas. I don't do architecture so I didn't like the TS-E 24mm.

I could see that.... I got the 24mm for lanscape and architecture... being that I tend to shoot both 80% of the time.

Bought the Canon 45mm TS and used it for a few years. Sold it this past summer. Fun lens, but limited usage for me.

I borrowed your former 45mm from Mr. Fu for a day. It was kinda fun and interesting. Having Live View helps.

Here's a photo

You can get some cool selective focusing photos with portraits use t/s lenses. Both Canon and Nikon t/s are of superb quality. Although I find that the Nikon ones are more rugged. I had a Canon 24mm T/S for a while but it was a bit wide for my liking. My Nikon 85 T/S is a keeper though.
