Kodak, in their Workshop Series Book "Lenses for 35 mm Cameras", endorse
the use of a shift lens for composite panoramic shots...

...
the shift lens, the
wonderful thing that it is, is probably the last lens to use for a
montage unless you don't use the shift.
You will likely never get the adjacent frames to match because your
perspective will be different on the various shots.
I think we're talking two different things, here. Ross and John are
talking about using a shift lens for a TWO exposure panorama, whereas
Rand is talking about using three or more exposures.
With the shift-lens "panorama," the camera doesn't move -- just the
shift setting does.
With a photomontoge panorama, the camera (or periscope :-) moves with
each exposure, and I agree that a shift lens would make this more
difficult to do.
