Abstract Train going into tunnel (DIY Tiltshift lens)

Train going into tunnel (DIY Tiltshift lens) · **1 Like**

I made a tilt-shift frankenstein of a lens last night and went out today to get to grips with it.
This was one of my favourites from the day.

Looks like you got it working.

Nice. Let's see the Frankenlens.

lol wait, so is this a model train or is this an actual train?

Either way, the tilt is evident, well done!
Its very hard to achieve the focus that you want with this kind of lens, takes some experimentation

Nice tilt. Bronica lens...I haven't heard of a Bronica for many a moon. They made nice medium format film cameras.

here's the lens

all it is is a rubber hood squeezed over the end of the lens and a reversal adapter glued onto the end so I can mount it, couldn't be simpler! It's actually worked out to be probably my sharpest lens and cheapest, which is a little surprising.

That is simply as cool as it gets. Amazing to think it was homemade. Sure is nice when a plan comes together! Nice work.
