If I had been an EF mirrorbox on the way to Iceland, I would also have jumped too. The secret is to always travel with two or more bodies including one to keep you warm at night.

1. I use tilt and shift Lightroom5. Actually more shift than tilt.
2. Absolutely Yes! Cameras are smaller and no need for a jumping mirror that cause vibrations.
I started using X100s a few weeks ago and from this day my Canon FF gear is left aside.
b. I'm still remember how my DSLR's mirror jumped out of its place on my way to Iceland. 5 years ago so I was forced to buy a new body in the most expensive place on earth.

Thanks! Let me be a little more precise:
1) What can a tilt-shift do that can’t be done or simulated in software these days?
2) As an example: Sony, which also seems to produce the sensor for the Nikon D800, is one of the contenders for mirrorless: Same or similar results with a lot less stuff to carry around.
BTW:
I am a former fan of Kodachrome, too!
1) sure why wouldn't you use a tilt shift for exactly what its designed to do. Change the plan of focus for a plethora of reasons.
2) mmm Mirror-less cameras are doing ok but digital view finders aren't quit there yet. They aren't bad but a nice optical viewfinder is much easier on the eyes. In the future they might replace but who cares its not something that actually has much effect on the image taking process any more then using a range finder vs an SLR (sort of)
