Subject:Re: using a tilt shift lens with a pano head?

Thread:


I'll try. Its a bit difficult to get off with kids and family, but I 
would love to come.

I have really been longing for something like this lens, especially 
since it has been very difficult to find a really good wide angle 
lens from Nikon for fullframe digitals. But now I have it. Its my 
first experience with a tilt lens (I have an old 35mm PC with shift) 
but I managed to take some decent images last night, both hand hold 
and on tripod. I will try a pano today and see how difficult it is to 
stich. Maybe you are right about the difficulties, but we will se.
