Excellent lens for my purposes. I was in the market for a used standard focal length lens with tilt and shift functions. The lens is super clean. I’ve kept it on the camera since my purchase.

Visually, the lens is good, but optically not. The photo taken with the lens has no contrast. The image is smoky. For pictorialism, photography is OK, but for classic photography it is not acceptable. The lens has been taken to a service center. I am waiting for the result of the solution of the problem. The sharpness is not so best. There are green aberrations. There is also focusing free movement, which is acceptable for a used lens. But it can be classified as a MINT lens.

Tilt-shift lenses are amazingly useful tools. 45mm is also a very useful focal length, particularly with the expanded depth of field available with the tilt feature. I like to be able to use wide angle, mid-range normal (which is what this lens is), and telephoto TS lenses. This particular lens, the Canon model, is well put together and quite sharp. I don't think it's quite as optically excellent as the Nikon model, but if you shoot a Canon body, you don't have much choice and it is capable of professional quality images. I've been using it on a 5D MKII body and getting pretty decent results. There is way more CA than I would like and it's a hassle to remove it from every shot. Also, the corners are not quite up to par. But, all in all, it's the best there is for now and it's not bad. If you can use a mid-range TS lens, this one is overall surprisingly good. I think the design has been around for many, many years now and could use updating like the 24mm TS-E. I sure hope Canon will do this and improve the already quite good lens. I think there are some alternatives from Ukraine, the Hartblei lenses, but they seem to be hard to find and I'm not sure how sharp they are, or the usability features. I'd like to try them out if I get a chance, but using Canon lenses on the 5D MKII allows full use of the great live view features, which is a good reason to use the Canon brand lenses whenever possible.Read full review
A tilt-shift lens brings back the experience of using a view camera to correct keystoning and other optical problems. One can also use a tilt-shift to create selective focus areas for creative effect. Manual focus allows greater control of precise focus.

Not a bad lens. I mainly want it to blur backgrounds, so f2.8 is nice. Not the sharpest, but decent.

I was very happy with my 45mm TSE. Glass is in perfect shape and hardly any scuff marks on the camera!

Canon TS-E 45mm lens; Older 90's build, but still an excellent specialized sharp lens. Good copies are an excellent value compared to the $2200 new TS-E 50mm.
