On another note, no one seems to be sure how long Mamiya will be in business producing these cameras. That is why they use the SB (short barrel) lenses with the tilt shift adapter. Second the added thickness of the tilt/shift adapter may not allow the lens to be focused at infinity as it will add extra distance between the film plane and the lens. The reason it cannot be used on the tilt/shift adapter are 2 fold, one the image circle is not wide enough to give you much room for adjustment, I beleive it just covers the film and not much more. The 50mm would be better for you tight inside shots. Using the shift in the horizontal mode, you can sort of look around poles and such if they are near the edge of the image by shifting the lens horizontally. 75 mm is really not that wide and you still have to move back a bit if you want to capture larger objects in their entirety. This will keep the building from looking like it is falling backwards. You make sure the camera film plane is parallel to the building and then using the shift in the vertical mode shift the lens until the part of the building you want in the picture is shown. This lens is better used as a lens outdoors to shoot buildings and such where you do not want keystoning of the image. Next it will not correct the distortions that you get with wide angle lenses using the shift feature. I doubt it would do anything for your interior shots as it is probably not wide enough.

Getting a 50mm lens and getting the Mamiya tilt-shift adaptor to go with it? I figure that I will be able to I hear that 75mm is not wide enough for most wide-shifter users. Wish to have the wide-angle characteristic in my shots. I shoot a lot in tight spaces, in-doors (you know, subject within their own living space), and i find itĭifficult to achieve a generous shot without having to use a wide-angle lens.the problem is that I do not This wide-angle lens and correct any sign of distortion that accompanies wide-lenses.theoretically.ġ. Now from what ive read on the description, and my limited understanding of the tilt/shift world, I can use Looking to buy a medium format camera and noticed on Mamiya's website that they have 75mm shift lens.
