    Remember: Front swing plus rear swing = rear shift. Front tilt plus rear tilt = rear rise. The Toyo 45A has both. Will it be enough? Is it inconvenient for you? Your decision.

    Rear rise and fall is the opposite but equivalent effect as the same movement on the front. Likewise rear shift is the opposite but equivalent to front shift. So while all of the Toyo fields AFAIK do not have rear rise/fall or shift, they do have front rise/fall and shift. Rise/fall and shift does not change perspective.

    Example: Front rise is the same as rear fall.

    Are there any folding field cameras with rear shift and or rise/fall?
    You've got a lot of good answers here already. I'll just raise one issue, based on the assumption that what you are trying to do is move your dslr around in the image circle to be able to do some stitching. If that's the case, the limited back movements on all of the cameras that do have them will likely not give you much coverage. You'd be better off building some kind of vertical and horizontal shift mechanism into your "home-brew back." Maybe just a plate that you can take out and remount to put the dslr mounting hole in each corner.

    Best,
