70 gigapixal of Budapest - largest pano - 07-30-2010, 07:41 AM


It's just been a few months since a 45-gigapixel panorama of Dubai claimed the title of world's largest digital photograph, but it's now already been well and truly ousted -- the new king in town is this 70-gigapixel, 360-degree panorama of Budapest. As with other multi-gigapixel images, this one was no easy feat, and involved two 25-megapixel Sony A900 cameras fitted with 400mm Minolta lenses and 1.4X teleconverters, a robotic camera mount from 360world that got the shooting done over the course of two days, and two solid days of post-processing that resulted in a single 200GB file -- not to mention a 15-meter-long printed copy of the photograph for good measure. Of course, what's most impressive is the photo itself. Hit up the source link below and start zooming in.

That's annoying when they don't include a link in the article.

It is not underlined at the last line of the article. But it is not the English version.

The Other End of The 70 Gigapixel Budapest Photo

Shot by Sony (with help from Minolta). 20,000 photos?! Crazy.
