Tilt/Shift Adapter for RZ67

thefizz · Mar 13, 2006

I believe there is a Tilt/Shift adapter available for the RZ67 Pro11 which fits between the camera body and lens.

Has anyone got any experience or views on using one of these and do you know if it will work on the original RZ.

I have one of these and it is easy to take on and off and works well. It acts as an extension, though and I use it with my Macro lens for real closeups. If you wish to use it for normal distances, you must have the short-barrel lenses which are made for it. I have RZIIs but I think it should work on an RZ. There are quite a few on eBay normally, but the short lenses don't come up as often. The prices now are really right..Evan Clarke

Thanks Evan,

I currently have a 50mm lens & 90mm lens. Do I need to purchase "short-barrel lenses" as well as the adaper or would it work on my lenses.

Anytime you move the lens away from the designed plane of focus your going to decrease the actual distance that the lens focuses at, so I would imagine that by putting the shift adapter in the mix even your 50mm is going to focus closer and have difficulty with infinity focus.

I thought the adapter would be a cheaper option but it seems to be priced similar to the shift lens from what I have seen on ebay.
