I have taken many that couldn't be done that way. I like seascapes. I wait till the boats are in right position for the shot and then fire a SNGLE exposure at the right moment. Impossible with pan and stitching for the large boats because they are moving objects but not moving fast enuff to be capture with LF.

And have yet to SEE an example of something taken in LF that could not be duplicated with this technique, if not at least closely aproximated. Some people will not be happy even if there is only a .00001% chance that something might not be possible with a new technology.
