Playing with focal plane is cool, but tilt/shift lenses are horribly expensive.
But cheap old manual primes are ... well, cheap. And sometimes surprisingly good in terms of image quality.
And there's also a chance that you already have some glass that can be used without clicking it into the camera mount... nifty-fifty is a good candidate here.
So, when you get a fast prime with possibility to set focus manually...
... have some fun!
- you set your lens focus to infinity, and open wide the aperture
- don't attach the lens to the camera ... just hold it next to the mount
- move it! Forward-back movement changes focus distance,
up-down and left-right inclines focal plane - shoot a lot :-) And I really mean A LOT.
It's not an easy task to get the focus where you want it to be :P
Consider switching to continuos shooting and keeping your shutter button pressed when moving the lens.
Shot with Nikon D700, Volna 80/2.8 and a bit of luck :D
