Additional Information:

The lens received the TIPA Best Professional Lens Award 2009. It features a tilt range of 6.5°, a shift of 12mm and a rotation of 90°. The lens is not compatible with extension tubes, but reported to work with Canon's series II extenders (see the-digital-picture review).

Zörk offers the Rear Shift Adapter and proPsolution the TSE Adapter (tripod mounts), both supporting a static nodal point during tilt and shift.

Lee Filters offer the dedicated adapter ring TS-E 17mm f4 to mount their 100mm system holder, which will still allow for approx. half of all movements' max. totals without vignetting.

Haida offers the dedicated HD3103 Full Metal 150 Filter Holder set. It takes up to two filters of 150x100mm. Using 2 filters will result in vignetting at ±6.5° shift and ±12mm tilt, otherwise not.
