Tilt lenses can be useful for things OTHER than making cities look miniature.

So I bought a tilt lens today, the finest secondhand Chinese glass on offer.

And while it's not going to be a daily use thing, it's fun experimenting with uses for the tilt function for things other than the usual "take a photo of a city from a tall place and make it look like a scale model" shots.

The pics attached have the building and the chimney on the same focal plane, but with the tilt I was able to move the focal plane so that it intersects the chimney only, and leaves the building out of focus.

Gear wise:
Fujifilm Xpro1
TTartisan 35mm F1.4 Tilt
Shot at I think F4 from memory.
800asa, 1/250&350
