    Dan,

    Let him get his feet wet and learn the equipment. If necessary he can add a d-back later. Many in the photographic world need d-backs neither to do photography nor to live productive lives.

    I leave the digital work for the urologists and proctologists.

    Just to be sure: Have you tried shooting architecture with your DSLR and just use photoshop or similar (Lightroom3 has it too) to straighten perspective up. I recently did a small job for Magasinet KBH, and it works like a charm if you have a reasonable number of pixels to work with. (I use a 7d).

    Hi Lars,
    a fellow dane here on the forum, hurray :-). Well, unfortunately I currently only have 8mp (canon 1D2N), which, I think, isn't enough to seriously correct perspectives in Photoshop. I will be getting a 1DIV (skipping the 1D3), but not for about 4-5 months. I think I'll keep my eyes open for either a used View Camera, or a (resonably priced) used Silvestri outfit with shifts. Both such systems could be "upgraded" to a digital back at a later date.
