The rule of thumb (and geometry) for a reasonably level camera at around 5 and 1/2 feet above the ground is 1 degree of tilt for every 30mm of focal length. I'm certainly not arguing with success, but see how 2 degrees tilt works.This will be old news for many, but for those thinking about a tilt adapter, it might be useful. I tried out a Fotodiox tilt-shift adapter recently. I used a 50R and a Pentax 645 55mm lens. I wish I had had better subject matter, but I was very impressed with the effect of about 5 degrees of tilt. The closest leaves were about 8 ft from the camera. Note the furthest leaves.
