Do you know how manu degrees equivalent the TS gets from one side all the way to the other on shift? The full image circle of the TS 17mm is equivalent to 11mm? Thanks!!

on 2:20 you wrote: "medium format cameras that you put on your smaller sensor" didn't you mean: APCS or full frame lenses put on medium format sensor bodies? because it seems to me that to get the tilt working you need a bigger sensor then the lens itself, in order to avoid dead areas in the picture. or maybe you wanted to say "medium format cameras that you put on your smaller lenses" (and not sensors)? or did I miss something in here?
@Ni5ei4 жыл бұрын
I bet he meant to say medium format LENSES that you put on smaller sensor cameras. To use shift you need a lens that covers significantly more surface area than the size of the sensor. If you would take a regular lens that's made for e.g. APS-C and you would somehow be able to make it shift, there would be nothing to show because the lens is made to only cover the APS-C sensor (well, usually a bit more but this part of the image is not meant to be seen and is often unsharp, shows vignetting etc.). When you look at the examples he's showing, you see he's moving the lens left/right and up/down and there's still a lot of "spare image" outside the frame.

@AgnostosGnostos7 жыл бұрын
The image circle of tilt lenses is much larger than that of a typical lens that is created for the same image sensor. That's why tilt shift lenses are much softer than cheaper lenses of the same focal length and maximum aperture. So sharp tilt-shift lenses are usually expensive. Also due to the complex construction of tilt-sift lenses the autofocus is never available. However most tilt shift lenses are wide and the focus isn't so difficult.

I don't really get it. Why can't you just point the camera straight at the object with a regular lens and then just move the entire camera body up a little higher without messing up the levels for the straight lines instead of purchasing an expensive lens that just moves up a couple inches... Am I missing something here?
@CalvinHodgson7 жыл бұрын
A few mm in a shift would translate into feet of movement to get the same shot. Just think about moving the camera up a few mm while being parallel to the ground; that won't have much of a change as would a shift in the lens. Essentially, you get the coverage of what say a 35mm camera has while on a crop sensor. Being that a 35mm will show a more apparent wider angle at any given focal length, you can take advantage of that on the APS-C format. Light is also entering in from a different angle to the sensor than what normally would occur on a TS lens.

I very much admire all of John's presentation and delivery skills. But, as is always the case, what failed to get mentioned here and the most important fact, is that the picture of the tree could have been shot level with a wide lens. What you would be left with is a shot with way too much ground. But then, you just crop out the ground. So, in short, everyone had a tilt shift lens as long as they can afford to crop many of their pixels, which I know is a big assumption. There is nothing magic about a tilt shift lens, it is essentially just a "crop" that uses your entire sensor... which is really nice, but it is also very easy to simulate/duplicate with a "normal" lens.
@LucienMize5 жыл бұрын
Actually, he mentioned that you could achieve a similar effect by cropping at the 4:00 mark. He explained the perspective correction technique instead of your wide-angle lens trick, but explained that you lose pixels and that's the reason the shift is useful. You're right, there's nothing "magical" necessarily about tilt/shift lenses, but they do offer functionality that you just can't achieve with a normal setup.
