With 8X10 format it is harder to find a wide variety of lenses for T/S work - only a few lenses have image circles big enough to allow for drastic movements, and those are pretty much in the "normal" FL range.Wide and telephoto lenses are somewhat thin on the ground - especially the ones that perform well enough across the frame AND allow for movements to be used. 4X5 format gives you a wider lens variety, one fun thing to try is putting a 5X7 or 8X10 lens on a 4X5 camera, it allows you to correct for perspective distortion in ways that no other camera could allow.

If this wasn't a work day I would have the time to sum all that is wrong with this statement.
Due to the shift capability it can be used as such with clever stitching, when you're working with T/S lenses you have the freedom to do produce images that no fixed focal plane lens could do.
None that is user controllable, and it would pale in comparison to what a true T/S lens is capable of. Be careful what you ask for: Shifting the rear standard is more prone to causing issues with lens casts, which is rather problematic when using movements with MFD backs on technical cameras.
