Tilt-Shift Lenses: Perspective Control (Shift)
Tilt-Shift Lenses: Depth of Field (Tilt)

And possibly the chapter on movements in Ansel Adams' The Camera.
Thanks for that. I've done some reading and looked at enough pics to be champing at the bit to have a go. I'd love a Hartblei 120mm makro but it's 3x the price of the Canon 90mm

I saw something that said the 80mm you have is much cheaper though....might have to look into that one in a bit more detail as it might be a useful stepping stone to this. How's the 80mm on tubes?
