Unfortunately that won't work [well]. I got this information from Zoerk, another MF to 35mm Tilt/Shift lens adapter manufacturer.Tempting...looks like a fun toy.
I think you mean the prism on the OUTSIDE right?
I'd be concerned with vignetting, particularly on the FF sensor. For a little more, you could go Mirex adapter and use Mamiya 645 lenses. Since I have the lenses, I'll get the adapter someday. Being able to use 35mm, plus 30mm fish (!!!), 45mm, 55mm, 80mm, 110mm, and 300mm (!!!) is a bonus for me.
Hours and hours of wasted digital photos.
Unfortunately its tilt rather than shift I want, but ideally both.If it's just shift you're after, there is always this 28mm Super-Angulon PC option from Schneider: Pricey!

Less distortion, more resolution.Wow, $2500 for a 28mm 2.8 lens. Pricey is right.
IIRC, the Canon 24mm lens can shift to emulate a 16mm FOV. So, assuming this lens is similar, that means the CZ 16-35mm should get you the same perspective in one shot as any set of images capable with this lens shifted and stitched. Sure, you do have to crop and lose resolution, but you save $1000 and get a much more useful lens.
What am I missing? Shift-only lenses seem to be useless for 35mm, since ultrawides are readily available.
Curious.
