  1. 39 MP? Peanuts! by Lars+Clausen · · Score: 1 · on CNet Tracks the History of the Digital Camera

    They haven't done their research. They say Hasselblad is coming out with a 39MP camera, which will be the most megapixels yet. Not by far: The Seitz 6x17 is 160 MP. Granted, it has a maximum shutter speed of 1 second with the full 160MP, but still... It's also huge. I am amused.

    This beast should do the trick. A bit bulky to be hiding in the ceiling though.

  3. Re:What is its dynamic range? by timeOday · · Score: 1 · on Seitz's 160 Megapixel Digital Camera

    Did you look at the surf shot on the homepage? Either that picture is fake, or the camera has insane dynamic range. A normal camera could never capture both the clouds and the foreground and correctly expose both. I think it must be a composite shot. (I'm also skeptical that they could get so many surfers so close together, with two in the air at the same time, but that's another matter...)

    Where'd the camera phone come from? Did you even RTFA? I dont know about you but this doesn't look like a camera phone to me

  7. Re:Technical Explanation by k31bang · · Score: 1 · on 70 Megapixel Webcam

    Just to let everyone know, what this little camera is, is a scanner on its side. Instead of moving a linear CCD sensor back and forth, this is just a linear sensor mounted around a servo. Really basic stuff here.

    Plans please. I wish to build my own. On a side note, I've been drooling at some film cameras that kind of do basicly(not all do 360's) the same thing for some time now. Such as the Globuscope , the Widelux and the Russian Horizon, AND of course the Seitz Roundshot.

    Of course some has made his own Panoramic cameras in the past.

  10. Deluxe setup includes by Alien54 · · Score: 4, Funny · on 70 Megapixel Webcam
    A webserver, and even a tech to setup the whole operation.(Note: 1 dollar = 1.25 swiss francs, roughly speaking)

    I can see the whole site starting to grind to a crawl even as I type this. Sopmeplace in europe, an MIS manager's beeper is going off, on a friday night no less.

    What could possible go wrong on a friday night?
