I enjoy landscapes. That usually means I think of a little front tilt as the same kind of necessity as film and a darkcloth. As I am getting a kodak 2D ready to use, a question about using it popped up in my mind.
I know a lot of you shoot with older cameras that aren't equipped with a front tilt mechanism. I'm curious to hear your methods of adding front tilt.
Now I know the mechanics: I know it's a combination of tilting the whole camera down, front rise, and rear tilt to level the film back out.
What I guess I'm after is a method of doing these things that is a bit more controlled than winging it. A lot of fine photographers in the past must have had this problem and conquered it.
Does anyone have a controlled process for adding front tilt when your camera lacks that movement?
