That's cool. I wonder if the picture will be exhibited somewhere out here...

They said the file size was 2.6 GB. That would actually be about 867 Megapixels at 24-bit or 650 MP at 32-bit (it's probably 24-bit). Still incredible.

I saw some of Andreas Gursky's large scale photos at the SF MOMA last year ( http://www.moma.org/exhibitions/2001/gursky/ ), which are like 8x10 foot printed photos using like 5" negatives I believe. I was really disapointed how when you got closer to the work (like within 3-4 feet) you could see how poor the image resolution was.

I'd really like to see some of the results from this camera especially if the detail is as good as they say it is! :shock:
