Actually, a pro photographer friend of mine scored a used Sinar (with nice lens 
and a bunch of extras, Polaroid backs etc.) for *much* less than the price of a 
new OM-4Ti with a 24mm shift attached.  Check out eBay for ideas of price 
ranges, and then go shopping.  Plus, from what I've seen of the work my buddy 
does, a view camera will open up whole new horizons for you (no pun intended).
