Canon TS-E 17mm f/4L

canon-ts-e-17mm

Tilt/shift photography (the real kind, not the kind you fake with a computer) can be quite fascinating and is a key component of high quality architectual photography. I have often wondered why Canon’s tilt/shift lenses didn’t come in wider focal lengths than 24mm. Tuesday, Canon announced the TS-E 17mm f/4L lens. This lens promises to make high quality wide angle tilt/shift photography available to APS-C sensor cameras (27.2mm equiv) while allowing full frame and 35mm film users to explore a whole new world of creative possibilities. If it is anything like Canon’s other TS-E lenses I’m sure (to the right people) it will be worth every penny of the $2,500 Canon is asking for it. Scheduled to ship in May.

About

I'm an industrial designer and an avid hobbyist photographer. People are always asking me "how'd you do that?" So, I decided to create this site as a place to share my experiences and insights about photography, the gear and what it all means to me. I'm not sure if this site will make anyone besides myself a better photographer but I figure it's worth a try. Take a look around and let me know what you think. Thanks for stopping by!
