Reviving the old thread. There is another option, though I haven't used it or see any reviews.

This allows shift and tilt. All other frames only allow shift. I have the Rogetti frame for my 24mm TSE-II but I need something for my 50mm TSE.

Looks promising. I don’t see any padding on bracket-to-lens contact. I just hope it doesn’t scratch the lens like the similar looking SunwayFoto mount that has metal lens contacts.

I guess you could apply thin cut felt tape…

Perhaps, Keith Cooper could chime in on this. I value his experience with TS photography.

Looks a nice simple design - I've not seen one though.

I'm curious as to what uses can be found for tilt with such a device - maybe downward tilt and panning the camera to get stitch-able panoramas with tilt.

If the makers see this thread - drop me a line

Could be one for the next edition of the tilt/shift book

Keith, first I should thank you for the valuable information on your website. I need to order your book too. Mainly trying to use tilt to get more DoF without needing to stop down too much.

Thanks - careful you don't assign too much capacity for getting apparent DOF out of using tilt

Remember that the tilted plane of focus is a wedge and can be very thin near the camera at strong tilt.

With the right subjects it can work really well and not look too false or contrived. When I do use tilt, I'm still often using f11 or more just so that it doesn't look like I've used tilt

I'm still looking for some good tilt examples to put in a video to show this, so any suggestions/ideas are always welcome...
