New Tilt-Shift Lenses in 2013 [CR2]

[Policar]

anyone else interested in a 35mm tilt shift? the 17 and 24 are great (have both), but sometimes a little wide still. 45 strikes me as a little long, but a 35mm would be fantastic! that or an aps-h 7dii...

Yeah, I'd like one of those. I don't think 45mm is that short, though. It's a nice focal length at which landscapes look natural without feeling flat. 24mm begins to feel "wide" for sure.

Those who can manage good landscape photography at 60-90mm impress me most.

New TS-E lenses should be a must for Canon. TS-E 45 and 90 are still there from 2003... We´ve been waiting for this L lenses 10 years..... :'( I hope the new lenses are at least as good as TS-E 17 and 24 L.

<strong>New 45mm & 90mm tilt-shift lenses



</strong>The 45mm and 90mm tilt-shift lenses are slated for release sometime in 2013. They will get the fully adjustable movements that are seen in the 17L and 24L tilt-shifts. Both will receive bigger image circles as well as performance. No mention of whether or not they’d get the “L” treatment, but I would assume they will.</p>
<p>It’s also mentioned that a 5th lens with “special movements” would also be added to the lineup. What would it be? Perhaps some kind of unique new macro.</p>

WHEN!!! It's now 2013, any more news on when? what month? I need these lenses now, and don't want to rent anymore, and don't want to buy, just to have the new one come out a week later.

Thanks,

OK, my hope for a fifth lens would be a 20-40 varifocal f4. Not a zoom but something that would keep me from swapping back and forth while on location. Yeah, I know I'm lazy.

Wonder if the 90 TS/E will have 1:2 or even 1:1 macro mode. A long (135+) macro with TS and tripod collar would be a killer of a lens.

Why not just buy them, and then sell them later when the new one comes out? Just consider it an extended rental period with an up-front deposit...

TS-e 45 and 90's are very reasonable on the S/H market. Look for mint copies and you'll sell them for what you paid for them...essentially, it'll be free use for the time you have them.

Is there a sane way to use the old FD(breech lock) 35mmTS on a full frame EF mount? Maybe it couldn't tuck in close enough (with adapter) to focus anywhere near infinity. Aperture was set manually with a ring on that, anyway.

I had one of those in the early seventies, and it was the reason I switched from Nikon to Canon. Loved it. I have the 45mmTSE but mine isn't very sharp. 35 a better focal length for some rooms.

I am guessing it would be too much to hope that at least one of them would have a tripod mount.....

I guess you are right!

A tripod mount at the nodal point would be ideal ...
