Since these are shift and tilt lenses, the image circle has to be  
large enough to encompass the movements.

The options are lenses from Canon and Nikon (others I know not) or  
the use of a view camera (5x4) to achieve the movements.
It's a question of how much movement and which perspective you wish  
to employ.

I have a 5x4 back-plate with a bayonet adapter for Nikon. Also  
available, I understand, for Canon.
So a dslr can be hung onto the back of the plate. Haven't tried it  
yet! Anyone else?

Byee,
Bruce.
