It is taking me a while to get the hang of this Nikkor 24 pce, but I think I am getting there. The perspective correction stuff is easy enough, but utilizing tilt to maximize DOF for landscapes is tricky. I have been reading everything I can find on it, and what it pretty much comes down to is alternating focus and tilt in live view for different parts of the frame until you hit the sweet spot. When you get it, the DOF is amazing. I can definitely see why many landscape guys are die hard fans of the TS lenses. This is an unedited (though reduced in size) test shot taken at f8, on a D800e. The sand in the lower part of the frame is less than 18 inches away from the lens. It is hard to tell in this reduced size photo, but the horizon line is very clean.
