Difficulty achieving desired depth of field.

Use the tilt function to control the plane of focus. Tilt the lens to align the plane of focus with the subject for optimal sharpness across the scene.

Lens is difficult to maneuver.

Practice using the tilt and shift mechanisms. Consider using a tripod for greater stability when making adjustments.
