Tilt-Shift Photography….

So cool, I think im gonna have to start trying this out!

“Tilt-shift” actually encompasses two different types of movements: rotation of the lens plane relative to the image plane, called tilt, and movement of the lens parallel to the image plane, called shift. Tilt is used to control the orientation of the plane of focus (PoF), and hence the part of an image that appears sharp – wikipedia.

In normal people speak its a style of photography that uses the way you tilt the camera, and shift it as your taking a picture to make only a slight portion of the picture stay in sharp focus. This achieves a photo that looks as if it were a miniature. This is can also be achieved by faking it with the use of todays digital cameras. I am defiantly stoked about using this, now that I have discovered it. Check out this awesome example of the technique. This clip was put together by Keith Louti

I might just be excited over nothing. This has been possible with Film cameras since the 1960′s. I just was never aware of it. I really think these pictures are pretty amazing. Can’t wait to get some good shots of the 7, and use this feature.
