Okay, so I was thinking about this because of the talk that has gone on here about T/S adapters possibly coming for m4/3. And, I am familiar with the concepts as to what can be achieved specifically with tilting a lens.
But then I started confusing myself when I started to think that effectively, don't you achieve the same results by tilting the camera backplane? So, if the point of tilting a lens is to shift the focal plane of the lens, can't you achieve effectively the same effect by taking advantage of the G1 swivel screen, tilting the camera while still being able to view your image? Or is the actual effect achieved by having the focal plane of the lens tilted with respect to the sensor/film?
Even as I write this, I am sure I have thought to long on this and twisted it around .. Can anyone clarify this?
Thanks,
Doug
