28mm shift lenses

Shift lenses are not widely understood or used. In fact, mentioning them draws a blank stare from many photographers, which is unfortunate given their many useful applications. I’d estimate that fewer than 1% of pro or “serious amateur” photographers own a shift lens, and that is unfortunate, because many applications can benefit (stitched high-res images, correction of converging verticals, more flexible camera position, etc). And so my 28mm Shift Lenses review has never been a volume seller. Nonetheless, I’m considering a modest update using the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III and Nikon D3 full-frame cameras, so drop me a line if you think you might buy an updated version of this review—I’ll gauge the merits of investing the time and effort based on the response I get.
