He's said that our 24mm (PC-E NIKKOR 24mm f/3.5D ED) was career transforming-"I didn't have to use Photoshop to distort images back into correction," was his reasoning-but its 24mm view wasn't quite wide enough for all his needs. Graham Hobart has had a lot of experience with NIKKOR PC lenses. "Often the goal of landscape photography is simple: get everything in focus." Ultimately what Adam is looking for is what most photographers want: photos that capture what they saw. For most landscape shots I'm using f/11 or so because I'll get greater depth of field on either side of the focal plane, and tilting alone may not get the whole scene in focus depending on how close something is to the lens." But by tilting in landscape photography you can get more of the scene in focus, and you can use a smaller f/number if you need more light or want to control the exposure water motion. "People often think of the tilting as creating a dramatic effect by throwing something out of focus, or producing a sort of miniature effect where you're shooting above something and you throw everything out of focus except some people or objects in the scene-the miniature village look. It's a way of doing a panorama without having to move the camera itself."Īdam also uses the 19mm's tilt function. "I can shift to the left or right, or up and down, in increments. He sometimes uses the shift to create horizontal or vertical panoramas. "So I can compose a scene using the shift instead of tilting the camera forward, and all the trees and mountains stay straight." But with a tilt/shift lens, he can keep the camera perfectly level and shift the lens up or down.
