Subject: [Leica] mega Zeiss lensbaby!

so I was thinking of  buying a lensbaby until I encountered a link
describing attaching a MF lens to an SLR with a plunger!
http://www.dennisonbertram.com/hackmaster/2005/02/tilt-shift-pc-lens.htm

I have hassy and leica R equipment.
I was thinking of buying 2 hasselblad to leica R adapters and
interconnecting them with the working end of a plunger.

In this setup, I could put a 80mm Hasselblad lens onto my leica R8 and
focus & shift a la lensbaby.

Any tips before I embark?
Seems a like cool idea.

Eric
