I find the camera can matter:
If I take my full DSLR bag I'm limited to about a mile from the car, or I'll be too knackered to get home.
With the micro 4/3 I'm limited in long telephoto (more...

This one & its partner in my Gallery...

Lens barrel adjustment gives the approximate focus, which can then be fine tuned with camera movement. So I use both but it's the camera movement that does the final job.

Tiltable lens adapters
I've recently seen loads of tiltable lens adapters on e-bay for mirrorless cameras.
Has anyone tried one, and are they any good??
Proper tilt/shift lenses are far more than I can justify...

There are plenty of Cheap long lenses around. Though they won't be of particularly good quality, and will generally be rather slow.
