Here's a clip of a conversation about a Canon 24mm TS lens.
These lenses correct parallel lines that curve inward or outward as you point a camera up or down. Like when you point a wide angle lens downward and trees lean heavily inward.
Neer having owened one, I have no idea of their limitations. These lenses will make a 35mm camera behave a bit more like a large format field camera with it's up and down motions that are able to correct perspective problems. Not cheap stuff, but they have a purpose.

Thanks Randy for your comment. Indeed mountains tend to shrink in photos. This eastern Himalayan mountain is 5,596 meters (18,359 feet)high, and the shot was taken from a relatively low altitude area. I will upload several additional shots of this amazing mountain in the next few days, so stay in touch :-)
What's a tilt shift lens? Is it common to use those to take shots of mountains?

That is a jaw dropping image, Ran. The mountains are so domineering. Wouldn't it be nice to wake up to such a view every morning?
I have a question tho. Did the mountains in the background appear much taller in person than we see here in the photograph? I find that through the lens, a tall mountain can lose a lot of it's true height. I would love to own a Tilt Shift lens for images like this. Anyway, very nicely composed.
