Thanks for the reminder about tilt-swing/tilt-shift adapters.  Nice video!

 

The "miniature" gag is what most associate with these adapters, but I prefer the look when tilt-swing is used subtly for effect and to direct viewers' attention.

 

A big problem that prevents the use of such adapters is that camera manufacturers unnecessarily commit their cameras to EF and PL mounts, instead of utilizing shallower mounts.

 

Trying to duplicate the tilt-swing effect in post only works when the camera is locked down and when the objects in the frame are grouped in an orderly fashion from front-to-back.

Ya I wasn’t certain how the effect works in post. It’s not exactly possible to replicate it righ? Because the effect is just a 2d effect in post and when used on camera is it 3d? Not sure if this is right or wrong?

If the camera (or subject) moves and if the foreground objects and background are not arranged in an orderly fashion, it can be very difficult to impossible to replicate the tilt-swing effect in post.

Exactly.

I have been playing around with this adapter for the past three or four projects and I am really enjoying shooting with it. For the price I think it’s really worth it IMO. Let me know if you have any questions.

 

 

Sigh!

 

ANOTHER thing I now want.       It will not replace my all time favourite 17mm TSE but to use on some of my FD lenses (and Tamron adaptall lenses with FD adaptall) would be fun to try.    Time to go beg on the street corner to be able to buy it.
