I did a quick search to make sure this wasn't a re-post and I didn't come up with anything. If it is a repost, sorry. I though this was pretty neat.

I dunno if it was posted here or not, but it made the Gizmodo page last week sometime. It's a very creative construction considering a 138MP 4x5 scanback will run you $23k. On the flip side, given the ridiculous scan time required, I've gotten fantastic results just clicking away with a longer lens and then feeding the images into AutopanoPro later.
