The introduction of this new lens expands TTartisan’s lineup, which previously included the tilt-only TTArtisan Tilt 50mm F1.4. With the addition of shift and macro-focusing capabilities, the Tilt&Shift 100mm F/2.8 2X Ultra Macro caters to the needs of wildlife and product photographers. This lens offers a shift range of up to 6mm and a tilt range of up to 8°, with the added convenience of a 90° rotation in either direction.
Tilt-shift lenses allow photographers to adjust the lens’s position in relation to the camera sensor, enabling vertical, horizontal, and angled movements. This versatility permits the correction or enhancement of image distortion and provides control over the depth of field, all without the need to adjust the aperture setting.
The TTartisan Tilt-Shift 100mm F/2.8 2X Ultra Macro is currently available for purchase, with shipping commencing at the beginning of June. Alongside the lens, customers will receive a detachable cold shoe that can be screwed onto the lens’s top, facilitating targeted lighting for macro photography subjects.
