I was just wondering because Ive seen a lot of pictures that look like lego toys, which requires the tilt-shift lens... is it even possible to achieve this with a reg lens?

I have the Canon Rebel XT (350D)with the stock lens (18-55mm) and a zoom lens (55-250mm 1:4-5.6 IS)


How much is the tilt-shift lens?

FYI, im only a novice/amateur photographer... So spending $$$$$$ on camera equipment is out of the question..

you could photoshop a tilt shift affect if im not mistaken

is it a seperate plugin for PS or does it include it already?

make sure you use pictures that have a high point of view looking down onto things. otherwise the effect is not good.

Here's a couple of mine:

Tilt shift lenses are $1,500+, so if all you want to do is the miniature effect, then using software is the best way to go.
