And these type of images are very easy to stitch. And you could apply shifts and tilts for correction on the camera, if it allows.

Rhinocam might not be the answer because if you shift the sensor to the far edge of most medium format lenses, especially wide angle ones, the resolution will be poor.

You can certainly shift the sensor on a DSLR with respect to the lens but this is somewhat limited due to the lens flange depth. A much better solution would be the use of a Sony E-mount camera, or Micro Four-Thirds. With good APO lenses designed to cover 4X5 you should get very good results if you can find a way to mount the lens to your view camera.
