A fun and cheap introduction to a shift lens

Having never used a shift lens before, I bought this lens to see if I wanted to invest in a more expensive version. Yes it has vignetting on a full-frame sensor, yes it's limited to F8. But it's definitely worth the price! I found the lens reasonably sharp, especially in brighter light. With one day of shooting, I'm already hooked. And yes, I'll eventually spend the big bucks on a high end shift lens, but I'll learn a lot first by playing with the AstriHori! I'm using the L-mount version on a Lumix S1R.
