The perception of perspective is based upon viewing a photo of a
particular size at a particular distance. A very wide rectilinear shift
lens with perfect film could create any image that any other rectilinear
lens could (ignoring bokeh, contrast, finite resolution etc ... ). It's
the minor things in the parenthesis and the photographer's own "image"
that make it imperative to own at least one of every Zuiko variety
(perhaps a few SP's, ATX's, Series 1's, and ... )
