Re: I want one of these cameras

I thought the ones we used to have where I worked before were good but seeing that, all I can say is that is one good bit of kit.

Re: I want one of these cameras

I wonder how long it takes for the image to be procesed and if there wouild be much ghosting, like that pic you could view in I think it was 50gpix half bodies were seen, people walking through buses etc.

it sounds a good piece of kit, but is it really practical?

Give it 10 years and we all have webcams capable of that resolution.

Re: I want one of these cameras

It's not one photo - it's a number of photos that have been stitched together!
