"What few thought possible has now come true: wide-format digital photography. With a resolution of 7,500 pixels vertically and 21,250 pixels horizontally this camera creates a 160 million pixel image."
It's a scan back sensor camera and they are showing photo examples of windsurfers in action.
Hahah, thats gr8. That camera isnt exactly "compact"...nor would i buy one for 45,000 bucks when you could buy afilm camera that gets better prints for 100. =P
Picture Purrrfect .
A purrrfect world is what we all want, but, seems too unobtainable. If I've viewed and commented on your post, and you liked my remarks then NO THANKS is needed...just getting to see your wonderful work is thanks enough for me!!
Also BIG thanks to all who check out my work!! I appreciate any and all comments & feedback!!
I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band,
I saw a needle that winked its eye.
But I think I will have seen everything
When I see an elephant fly.

But why stop with 160Megapixel? There is a gigapixel camera ( check out the gigapxl.org project site for some awesome photos and description of the camera. Btw, the camera designer is one of the designers of the Hubble telescope cameras.)
Gigapxl cameras take a lot of computer cycles to process too. Unless you have access to NASA's or Langley's brute force computers its going to take days to process a couple of photos ;-)
I just had a thought...how long will it be before a conversation like this is the inspiration for chuckles...not unlike the newness of color TV or those newfangled automobiles? i give it 10-15 years
