Homemade Digital Cameras

Posted by samzenpus on from the lie-down-on-the-camera dept.

Michael Golembewski writes "For the past three years, I've been taking apart cheap secondhand flatbed scanners and turning them into homemade large format digital cameras. They are well over 100 mexapixel in resolution, and produce results that are both similar to and significantly different from traditional digital and conventional cameras."

    There were two points. First, cool effect with the motion and all. Second, 100+ megapixels!!

    Have you seen the pictures? The quality is fairly poor, and they are black and white. 100+ megapixels only does you good if you have a lens that can produce that kind of quality image, which he didn't.
