If you set it up properly, you won't need to do any perspective control
tricks in PS. Buy a tripod head with a level on it. In the alternative, set
up your tripod so that the 24mm is at 4 feet and aim the camera at a spot 4
feet high (post-it note? removed later). Vertical perspective should be
correct with no keystoning.
To correct horizontal perspective (sideways keystoning), your line of sight
should be at 90 degrees from the wall you are shooting.
You don't need a 35mm shift if you have a 24mm. They cover the same area, ie.
the total angle of view of the two is the same assuming the 35 is shifted
around.
