The Scheimpflug principle is a geometric rule that describes the orientation of the plane of focus of an optical system when the lens plane is not parallel to the image plane. Another name for this is 'Tilt-shift photography'. Using the Scheimpflug principle can give common scenes a very unique perspective - the image often looks fake or like a model. But rest assured, its all real.
