Back swing could come in useful to create a different visual swoop down the length of a log. I always photograph for effect. I am not a documentarian.

WYSIWYG is exactly what I get -- that's what is great about the ground glass.
I'll have to try some rear tilting (and swinging) the next time I use my 37mm Mamiya Fisheye. Never tried it with the fisheye -- which always has bent trees!
