Title: Could Fuji GFX lenses be shift adaptable?
Post by: DCW on November 28, 2019, 06:28:39 am

Could the GFX lenses mate to Sony, Canon or Nikon mirrorless. Any idea if Kipon or Novaflex are working on a shift adapter for these lenses.

They are focus-by-wire lenses, with electrically-operated diaphragms. Adaptation would not be easy.

Adaptable to what? If you mean onto a Fuji GFX then apart from the electronics mentioned the lens would need optical components like the Hasselblad HTS 1.5 has and probably at a similar price.
Many things are possible but a lot are just not practical. Buy a Tilt Shift Lens

Should have been clearer - shift adapter + GFX lens to 35mm mirrorless body. I do own a 24 TS E - looking for 28-40mm shift possibilities.
