First world's TS in for 35mm format? hmm...

This lens is not mine Smile

I am doing conversion and infinity is there ..

Still haven't finished all but I was able to take a few tests ..

The lens is fantastic - great sharpness and colours.

all wide open - I didn't close the aperture - it was not necessary Wink

Very interesting!
I did not know that there was a tilt-shift lens in small format.
Surely interesting especially for studio work (still life).
Just for curiosity, how much is the lens worth on Ebay?

Hi Orio.

yes - the lens is very interesting but prices are crazy nowadays

I think that 400 GBP (and more) is nothing unusual ...

they're more or less expensive..

Tri: I personally like the unusual "cream style" bokeh here. It's just clear
enough to recognize the distant objects, yet it's fuzzy enough to bring out
the subjects.

I'm on a hunt ( read bargain) for a copy for a few months.
I watch ebay closely, prices that I've seen are between $450 and $700 for the auctioned ones.
It could be used for landscapes too not only studio work.
