There’s something subtle about it that isn’t obvious unless you know what is going on. I don’t have a real clean grip on it myself, since I’ve never played with a tilt-shift lens; I know conceptually that you’re pulling the narrow depth of field slice out of perpendicular to the lens, but I’d have to mess with one to really understand how many axes it can be rotated on, etc.
Do you set a pretty wide aperture (say f/2.8) and then shift the out-of-focus areas around?
Those are sure a lot prettier stocked trout than we have – most of ours look exactly like the washed-out ones you buy at the grocery store.
Hey Richard –
I’m only familiar with shifting and tilting lenses in the perspective-control line Nikon sells to architectural photographers.
I’m sorry, Mike, I didn’t have any more photos of Twin Bridges – thought I did but I must have lost or destroyed them.
It was an insane #3/0 Crease Fly meant to imitate a Peacock Bass fry – surprised the crap out of me that it took it.

Incidentally, here is the Cabelas “baseline” I am considering –

The more advanced models primarily add stuff I won’t use, like weather radio functionality, although the next one up gets an SD card slot for switching in and out more maps.
