These two pics were taken with the lens either tilted back or forwards.

I did a whole can's assignment shooting can's and we did every single possible way of focusing a 4x5 . i think we shot 22- 30 something negs -_-... if you think about it each neg costs about $1.03 or something. sighs!! for one Assignment. then the photo paper, mount tissue, foam core for mounting, and labeling each.. im glad we're done with that assignment
!..
and yeah the stuff you see in martha stewart magazines and stuff is prob shot with a digital back 4x5
... gotta love the quality but the cameras are wayy too heavy to carry around especially when the case weighs just as much, then you have all the stuff you need to take on location ie:loop,short shank cable release,light meter, calculator, ruler, lens hood,rocket blower, neg carriers. prob forgot something but yeah super fun cameras to use once you know how to use it you can shoot off perfectly focused/exposed negs like theres no tomorrow
