      @mattblaze@federate.social Ah kind of afraid of that. I’ve got a Canon 5D which I’d love to explore doing T/S photography with, however the only two Canon lenses are a 17mm one and 24mm one at $2150 and $1900 respectively. Ouch. Was hoping there was a T/S lens mount that would convert my existing lenses.

        @ChuckMcManis@chaos.social The problem is twofold: the space required by an adapter would probably make it hard to focus at infinity, and, more seriously, 35mm form lenses not designed for shift generally have very small image circles and wouldn’t allow much shifting.

          @ChuckMcManis@chaos.social That said, I’ve seen shift adapters designed to mount medium format lenses on 35mm format cameras. And there are a lot of good used medium format lenses on the market.
