Or so they claim.
Made by stitching together 1,665 images from a Canon 5D mk II the end result is 297,500 x 87,500 pixels. That's 26 Gigapixels. I'm thinking the claim is probably a good one! Gigapixel-Dresden.de - Large Size Panoramas

Nice link dave. Ive found myself wondering sometimes how amnay photos oit would take to capture a landscape when I Only had my 150-500mm lens, but this has made me think Im better off with the kit lense!
The boxes with the details in the pictures are very "where's Wally"  |

I had a go at something similar but got fed up after the first 6 images. |

Coo! That's a lot of photographs! Does anyone know how long it took them to do that? or even the computer specs required?? must be massive! As much as I love my photography, I'm not sure I'd have the patience for such a project!
That said, if it was for a world record or something similar then I'm sure I could be pursuaded...

D/x | According to the blurb in Dave's link:
"It consists of 1.665 full format pictures with 21.4 megapixel, which was recorded by a photo-robot in 172 minutes. The converting of 102 GB raw data by a computer with a main memory cache of 48 GB and 16 processors took 94 hours." |

Oops! I didn't see that! Sorry! I think I'd clicked the image, which doesn't allow you to scroll the page afterwards |

Awesome! I am impressed but not so much as I would be if they printed it out - you couldn't possible appreciate it unless it were.
Just look at this by Rafael Rivera - wonderful!!!
Just get me a helicopter (free) and a head for heights (more difficult) and I'll have a go. The most my Mac will cope with is around 140 images - reduced in size. Need more RAM!!!  YouTube - Ponorama stitching in photoshop of New York City
