I'm trying to make a DIY tilt/shift lens. (see http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=767550)

I am looking for an abandoned medium or large format lens roughly 28mm to 50mm prime.
(I have a 3/4 sensor) and ideally a broken EF lens with intact mount.

Perhaps a broken tilt / shift (some chance!) or any other bits you think might help.

I have been looking at ebay, but these don't seem to come up at the 99p end of the market.

I tried a standard 28mm lens which had some potential but shift would reach end of useful projected image.

I'm in Ealing (West London).

Hopefully,

Martin

Still looking!

I've been looking at cheap end of ebay but no joy. Where else could I look for broken ef lenses or unused medium format lenses? I guess everybody takes really good care of their stuff.

Cheers!

Eventually decided building one was never going to be that good so bought an old 24mm TS-E L on ebay. It seemed a bit of a rash decision but I really Love it!!!!!!
