To tilt or not to tilt

[btaylor]

Cool thanks. To be honest I'm ok with spending the extra money for the best filters. I'm about to drop over $2000 on a pretty purpose specific lens so I'd much rather put something in front of it that's going to retain IQ than save a few bucks. Thanks Jonathan.

I do use the TS-E 24L II handheld occasionally, but only with shift. If you're going to tilt, it's tripod time.

Jonathan is right - Live View is the way to go. Both shift and tilt will affect the metering sensor (over or underexposure depending on whether you apply a positive or a negative lens movement). Before Live View, you had to meter with the lens at neutral, then apply movements and dial in your exposure.

Thanks for the added info.

Anybody have any experience with Hitech filters? I like the look of their aluminium holder system.
