Sorry, but round shades is useless even without lens movements.

For Samyang 24mm T-S you can use Cokin P-series wide-angle holder and shade, but holder will vignette with shift more than ~7mm (8mm for horizontal shot and rise|fall and 6mm for vertical shot).

Anyway, this is a roughly sharp image circle of this lens;-]

In cases when i need maximum shift i cover front lens side with hand.

Maybe bigger size of Cokin filters(Z-Pro) can help 'cause 82mm is the biggest possible thread for Cokin P.

It works fine as long as one is able to keep up with the routine of using a lens the doesn't communicate with the camera. Build quality is fine though not even close to the Canon TS which are the best as far as I know. It gets the job done but you have to be realistic ,you get what you pay for.I have been using it with a Nikon D800E which is a very difficult camera to use with Live View. I would highly recommend a shade as it is very prone to flares.  Long story short , it will do a lot but it has its limitations .

Cheers


p.s I did pick up a shade on Ebay  and thank you for your suggestions

I use it pretty often, on Sony A900 (w/o liveview at all;-)
mostly with shifts and rises, tilt is very difficult w/o live-view and my subjects rarely needs it.
