Title: HARTBLEI 45mm Super-Rotator Tilt Shift Lens with P1 DB
Post by: Zylon1 on September 16, 2011, 07:43:20 pm

Anyone using one of these tilt shift lens with a Phase One 645 DF and 65+?  Curious how the setup would compare to a Cambo WRS with a similar tilt shift lens.  Thank you.

Th 45mm SR is a lens you buy for its incredible unsharpness, its unpresedented bokeh and great tonal rendering. A45 SR is not the lens for architecture or other pictures that need to be pin sharp. ;D

It's a great lens to transform your $40K system into a $120 Holga equivalent. Peter forgot to mention it's extraordinary rendering of Chromatic Aberrations.
Cheers,
Rafa

If you really like special unsharp zones, controlled flare and something extra, special in your images: nothing beats the Hartblei 45SR. I have 5 of them, all rendering some different but all are great lenses.
