Yesterday, a friend asked me to photograph a building she has a project with at Alabang business center. I chose to shoot just after sunset to give the building a more flattering look. Having no tilt-shift lens, I made do with my 10-20 UWA and just tried to correct the distortions in PS..... I had to throw away about 4-5 MP during the correction process. How I wished I had a 17 mm TS lens! Here's the uncropped/unprocessed/uncorrected full frame from ACR resized to 900x600, 7D + 10 mm, 30 sec exposure, f/11, ISO 200:  Corrected for distortion and post-processed:  |

Same here Romy ..... 17 mm TS lens. I'm due to get the lens but I opted for the big glass. So in time .... a dream will be a reality. ha ha ha

Yup, Boy.... the 17 mm TS f/4 is the ultimate architectural glass - very sharp edge to edge. It's listed at USD 2.3K at B&H, so it's quite a stiff buy.  |

Romy you would be too far from the building if you used a 17. You would need to be at the center island of Daang Hari to scale the building the same way Photo below was taken during Christmas party. I was beside Bong that evening on the west-end of the lanai.  Camera Canon EOS 5D Exposure 1 second Aperture f/4.0 Focal Length 17 mm ISO Speed 800 |

Nice shot with the 17, Pao!
Yes, I'd have needed to get a bit nearer with a 17TS. A nice vantage point good comp will be at the same sidewalk, but right across the T-intersection.
