Hi Jeff, Well, the 2x in the Magnifier S is certainly a godsend for working with an tilt-shift lens. Shifting, I can now manage, but getting correct focus with tilt is still an uphill struggle. (or is that downhill :-) Do you think that a higher power magnifier (e.g. A reversed EF 50mm or EF 24mm) over the eyepiece would help? Or perhaps your initial suggestion to put a ground glass on the focussing rails and use an 8x loupe instead? Or do you have special tricks to help determine tilt and focus?
