I’m out in the field (on the camping trip mentioned in another thread) and wondered how using rear tilt to accentuate different elements of a composition affects front tilt and getting the plane of focus sharp (near to far).

I plan to keep fiddling with it and experiment, wondered if there are any helpful rules of thumb that can help guide me.

The specific example I had was 15 degrees of rear tilt (backwards), and I was having problems getting my near-to-far sharp when using front tilt to adjust the plane of focus. I was shooting some mountain ranges and wanted the foreground and peaks both sharp, but used rear tilt to emphasize the peaks.

Thanks for any tips or suggestions!
