Nice Set-Up , I have realised the " lack of space " problem , the 65mm horseman ( probably of Symmar design ) does come dangerously close to the rear standard of the VH-R , the 105 horseman and the 180 Xenar would work , but then those would be a little long for average landscape work , for close-up maybe, but then the PC 35 with tc-201 would get me there ( nearly , as there`s no tilt ) do n`t do much close-up anyway. So for the time being ,I`ve shelved that project, instead I`m aiming for the PC 24 , and then there`s that Df beckoning , I`ve seen it next to a D4 , and am more than ever convinced that the Df will find a place in my " box of Pandora " The PC 24 has the possibility of loosening 4 screws to rotate the front so as to get the Tilt / Shift in the same plane. Cumbersome tho` , I can see myself toting a ziplock with a bunch of screws and a li`ll screwdriver , rotating the front back and forth according to circumstances . I saw a review of a Rokinon ( that SamYang under a different name ? ).. where , if I understand correctly , Tilt can be moved Independantly of Shift,... now that would be attractive , ... your SamYang can do that ? ..the Df is pricey , so if I could skimp on costs without sacrificing Image Quality,well then ,...or am I dreaming?

Interesting what you have done but a modern 24mm PC Nikon lens would do so much more and much less baulky! In the days of film I used a 4x5 Sinar but found that the large format lenses were not nearly as sharp as the Zeiss lenses on my Hasselblad. We all know how good modern Nikon lenses are!

Well that is true my 24mm PCE is an awesome piece of kit and super sharp.

I have a Nikor 35mm PC lens and the new Samyang 24mm TS f3.5. This adapter was made just to see how/if it would work. :thumbsup: I even found a -1.5 diopter lens element and installed it in the wood mount. It works but has some edge fringing. Bought a Hasselblad lens to Nikon camera adapter a while back and on the shots so far the Hasselblad lenses aren't keeping up to my Nikors. Don't have any Zeiss glass and plan to do some more tests soon.
