I am not sure if this is on a thread buried somewhere deep within DPS. But thought I would share the Brenizer Method. Ryan Brenizer discovered this on his own (not saying anyone had not done it before him) on his honeymoon. You take a portrait image close up and make it a panorama. Then combine it in photoshop. Using this technique gives you a medium format image feel without the steep price tag. This is best used with a very shallow DOF lens too.

When you make the file it is huge, and allows for a lot of cropping. Print quality is awesome.
