Canon Tilt-Shift Lenses?
What is your favorite tilt-shift lens for the Canon camera?
Rumor has it one of the early tilt-shifts had focus problems. True? And if yes: which one?
Thanks in advance.
Right, manual focus. Heard a lecture from a landscape/nature photographer and he alluded to focus problems on early Canon TS. Just curious.

I am pretty sure that all of the T/S lenses are manual focus. I haven't heard of any problems but I will check it out*.
I have TS-E 45mm f/2.8 and it works great.

*At Luminous there have been some complaints about the early 24mm T/S lenses. But it is in the design of the float system and not a physical "break down" problem. Distracting edge softness.
