how are you going to make the rear
tilt axis pass through the film plane in a 35mm camera and bellows
arrangement? It seems that you would get vignetting otherwise.

Yea, there's the rub. That's also why front-tilt is out, unless you use a wide-coverage lens, like an enlarging lens or large format lens.

What I REALLY want is a Zörk (Zoerk), which pivots like a ball-and-socket, and therefore better aligns the focal axis with the film center, but those suckers make Zuiko glass look cheap.
