Product Description

From the Manufacturer

With a Canon TS-E lens, you can control the angle of the plane of focus and the picture’s perspective. The effects of large-format camera movements can be obtained with TS-E lenses for EOS cameras. Although manual focusing is required, automatic aperture control enables autoexposure and autoexposure bracketing. The tilt and shift axes intersect at a 90° angle. They can be made parallel at an authorized Canon Service Facility (modified at owner’s expense).

The normal lens in the TS-E system, and an excellent choice for product shooting and other applications calling for a natural perspective. It allows up to 11mm of shift off-center, and even more impressive, tilting of the front standard up to 8° to modify the plane of focus. Among the TS-E 45mm f/2.8’s optical highlights are a floating optical system (focusing down to 1.3 ft/0.4m), and a precise rear-group focusing system.

Product Description

Cannon offers this normal lens featuring tilt and shift movements. The floating system and rear focusing give sharp and stable delineation from 0.4 m to infinity. The 45mm focal length is ideal for obtaining a natural-looking perspective.

4.0 out of 5 stars Canon TS-E 45mm Tilt Shift, January 21, 2009

Excellent build quality. The photographs it produces are really nice. Certainley does not replace a camera with more movement, but a good addition to my 35mm kit.
