Canon's TS-E lenses are tilt-shift lenses designed for purchasing a Canon product. The lens can be tilted up to ±6.5° (for TSE17mm f/4L) or ±8.5° (for TS-E24mm f/3.5L II), and shifted up to change the tilt or shift direction. 6. Aspherical and UD lens elements result in a nicer background blur. The lens can be rotated to ±12mm. 4. The tilt and shift functions can switch...
