Greetings,
Just to share a few pic of my Tilt-Shift lens, TS-E 24mm f3.5L II. This is an amazing lens! But learning curve is high! C&C welcomed. Enjoy...

Comparison of tilting and non tilting images!

From another view, tilted images.

Those are nice pictures, but somehow the dof looks like it was added in Photoshop. I guess it's because the human eye doesn't focus like that at all, so the brain can't handle it ;-)a

Ya, tilted taken images are very different from what we use to see. The bokeh of the image is different from none tilted image. I've still much to learn, experiment and be creative with this lens. Thanks for you dropping by and comments. Enjoy...

The castle in the last photo also has quite a bit keystoning distortion: don't forget to shift as well! ;)

And don't forget to have the camera axis level with the horizon, or you'll get keystoning in spite of shifting.

And Alveric is right, we can clearly see the keystoning problem (trapezoidal shape) on the last one ;)

Ya, got it. I was very new to this lens then, so, I didn't understand much of how it works. Now, I'm much careful with the sensor plane and the lens plane relationships. As I said, this lens its a joy to use! Thanks for your comments. Enjoy...
