It's actually a quite simple procedure to have tilt and shift in the same direction. All you need to do is to remove the 4 screws at the bottom, rotate 90 degrees (just check carefully which direction, otherwise you'd rip off the internal cables) and reapply the screws. The only important thing is to have the right tools, so you don't ruin the screws.
The way Canon solved this on the TS-E II lenses is certainly something Nikon should also consider for upgraded models of the PC-E lenses.

Hi Markus, I am just curious: how can you determine which direction is the correct direction to rotate to after the four screws are removed? Is it that if you rotate to the wrong direction then you will feel tight?
