Does anyone know if these tilt-shift lenses are able to give a look such as a photo stack with insects/flowers/etc? Seems with a 55mm you'd have to be super close to the subject, while the 100mm gives a bit more range.
I like the thought of a photo stack in just one photo, with a great DOF. Looking at the article AlanF provided, makes it seem that's possible.
I have a Venus 15mm macro that I left a really good review for on Amazon some years ago. I loved the look of wide angle images, while having the subject in focus and even some of the background. It's a very unique look that you simply can't get with other lenses. That being said, it's probably the most difficult lens I've ever used. For a macro shot, the lens is basically touching the subject. Lol
So I'm just curious if a t/s lens gives a bit more space between subject and lens and gives a greater depth of field. For an example, is it possible a bee would be completely in focus using the t/s features.
Also, I'm not just asking about these two lenses, just wondering about any lens that has these macro capabilities and would be able to get a tiny subject completely in focus with one shot. From eyes to behind.
I have the mp-e 65mm and find myself not shooting at 1x very often unless it's a larger subject. I usually shoot at 2x+. I know Venus/Lawoa have had some new lenses that shoot 2x but I'm not sure about ones that can "create" a larger DOF.
