Thanks Ivan. Someone in Ontario got a great deal on a mint camera/lens. I'm not sure how the condition could be better.
The FA 35 is probably my favourite lens and this one is absolutely mint. The 120 is my workhorse in the studio. Or was, I should say, since I've packed up and sold all the studio equipment and am heading into the sunset.
Best wishes,
-jc

I'm thinking that's best done off this Pentax MF forum. My point was, for some, tilt/shift lenses are necessary in the work we do. And we feel it's time for Pentax to make a digital 645 wide t/s (or tell us this is not in the cards!)

p.s.
You could take a quick look at johncameron.ca (scroll down to 01). Then contact me from the site if you want to see something specific.
I guess my take away thoughts are:
- to show a small room well you are going to want the MF equivalent of a 17 or 18mm (FF) lens.
- to show the drama of a large or tall area, you are still going to want something that wide
- to properly/efficiently deal with perspective, you can't beat a tilt/shift lens
- a shift lens allows you to 'go wider than the lens' by shifting right and lift, or up and down
- to get whole room in sharp focus or focus down a wall (or in a landscape), tilt is your friend
- some wide t/s lenses have a protruding element that sometimes likes to surprise you when shooting into lights...

Just curious, do you need more resolution than the 1 DX provides?
Shooting interiors, are you not using perspective control lenses?
A Canon 17mm T/S lens (on my 1DX) paid for itself in one month. I later added the 24 T/S. Excellent lenses both though the 24 is easier to use. I use the 17 mainly for interiors and the 24 for most exteriors. For the work I do, 28mm is definitely not wide enough for interior work.
My clients have never asked for more resolution, but I'd love to use a Pentax tilt/shift or even just shift on my 645Z. Unfortunately, the Pentax cupboard remains bare.
Good luck in your search.

It's very quiet on the 645 lens front. A wide medium format shift, or tilt/shift ( 18 or 24 FF equivalent) would be welcomed for architecture and landscape. Hard to imagine an MF system without T/S. Might have to rethink this system for pro work.

Well considered and executed. Lovely tones; not over processed. Somehow goes beyond the cliché trap many reflections fall into.

I'm not getting that issue either. Last week, I shot portraits for two days: studio lighting tethered to Lightroom on a MacBook Pro. About 80 percent focused with live view. 645Z was set to display shots for 3 seconds. Otherwise image review was done on the the computer. 5 to 6 hrs each day. Did not need to change batteries, but it was close I think.

The updated version of ColorChecker Camera Calibration can be downloaded here now supports DNG files >40MB and works with the 645Z.
I tried it on a test shot, saved (on Mac) the .dcp file to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Camera Raw/Camera Profiles/
Works.
