Canon patents the world’s first tilt-shift zoom lens with image stabilization (IS) and macro capabilities

Canon tilt-shift lens with image stabilization IS patent
Canon filed a patent for a tilt-shift lens with image stabilization (IS). Currently there are no other tilt-shift lenses with IS on the market. The lens design reveals two different IS systems - one for the tilt and one for the shift. What is even more intersting: the technical documentation even describes zoom and macro capabilities (!?). Focal length and aperture were not listed in the patent application.
