This is very helpfull with all cameras and lenses, especially when you do raise, down and shift movements, to confirm that the lens is covering all the negative.

Here are 2 photos made with my Nikkor W 210/5.6 and a Kodak 2D 8x10" camera:

Thanks for the additional information, and the great sample images!

I'd be happy with Nana's ability to see composition.

That seascape is sensational.

Nana, the seascape is almost "otherwordly" except that the foreground rocks "ground you" into reality. Great images both. Thanks for sharing. Portugal seems like an exquisite place to photograph.

Yesterday, I made a visit to one of my favorite places, the Blue Ridge Parkway. Near mile marker 190 I could not drive by this scenic. This
is the way it should be, beautiful, quite, calm and peaceful.
