Photography Question

Next must-have a 416mp cam?



We were wrong: Schlepping around a telephoto lens the size of a horse's leg does not qualify as extreme photographer behavior.

Nope, for that distinction, you'll need to update to a camera that captures images with 416 megapixels of detail and has a top shutter speed of slightly less than three minutes.

That would be the new Super10K-HS by high-end imaging specialist BetterLight, which makes digital camera backs for large-format film cameras. Other impressive specs for the Super10K-HS include images that weigh in at 794 megabytes and have 48-bit color detail and a built-in 40GB hard drive. The $23,000 price tag is a bit of an eye-opener, too.

  Haha...

And it is still cheaper than a 39mp Hasselblad!
