In this episode of Photography Exposed, Christopher Stokes discuss the decision to bring an inexpensive point-and-shoot camera on a trip to Italy. Brian Palmer talks about lens selection and how to determine what you need, without paying much more for what you don't need. For a photo road trip to Pittsburgh and Cleveland, Brian rents a Canon 24mm TS-E Tilt Shift lens, and discusses the differences between using it and an inexpensive Lensbaby. See real time through-the-lens examples of what a Tilt Shift lens can do for you!
