I guess I am supposed to hate you know, Timber ;-). These shots are mighty

knowing that it can be done in Pentax world.
Large Format! It's probably cheaper than tilt-shift on an SLR.
Actually it's medium format :)
The adapter is quite cheap and can tilt to 8 degrees and rotate a full
360 degrees. It doesn't needs shift mechanics for compensation because
the Pentacon Six lenses are designed for 6x6 format. Also there are many
very nice lenses for the PSix system (Carl Zeiss Biometar f2.8/80mm is
the one I used for the shots... It's an excellent portrait lens and EBay
price is around 20-40 USD, but I should mention the Carl Zeiss Sonnar
f2.8/180 and f4/300 which are extremely sharp lenses... and can be
tilt-rotated with the adaptor too :P) and the Pentacon Six machine is
one of the cheapest solution for those who want to try Medium Format
photography.
The only 'bad' thing about the PSix lenses: they are huge compared to
the 35mm lenses :) Here is my Zebra-Zeiss collection where you can see
their size:

(PSix line still missing the 120mm Biometar and Zebra version of 80mm
Biometar and a few M42 ones...)
