Yes like a Hassy superwide (SWA) but you can just like the Superwide use a
viewfinder. But complicated by the fact that you've got shifts.
By the way you've got an option of using the same lens as on a superwide.
The 38 Biogon.
Or a Schneider or Rodenstock of the same focal length. I'm checking that out
it's been awhile.

Here are some high rez pretty good sample pix taken with the Alpa 12 by a
guy.

Plenty with the Biogon. Some film some dig back.
Some square some rectangle format.

Some titles with info to give you the idea.
