Your sense of smell enables you to taste the meal before you even see it! If you closed your eyes, you could hear the sauce bubble and feel the heat from the boiling pot. The fact that our senses are very much connected got me thinking. How can I connect this information to my photography? I constantly engage my eyes to create images. What if I add other ingredients to my new “photo recipe”? It took mama 40 years...

The post Canon Is Developing RF-Mount Tilt-Shift Lenses appeared first on Digital Photography School. It was authored by Jaymes Dempsey. It’s only been a few years since the release of Canon’s first full-frame mirrorless camera, but the imaging company’s RF-mount lineup now features dozens of lenses, including pro-level zooms, top-notch primes, and even a handful of macro and super-telephoto models.
