This is a photo from the 2009 Inauguration. In this photo you will be able to see IN FOCUS the face of each individual in the crowd !!!

You can scan, double click and zoom to any section of the crowd... wait a few seconds... and the focus adjusts.

The picture was taken with a robotic camera at 1,474 megapixel. (295 times the standard 5 megapixel camera)

Makes you wonder who's watching us right now!!!

Lol aye there's a few people nodding off, not surprised though!

Check out the railings on the right hand side of the pic, there's a pair of half legs walking next to it, someone has been spliced! :shock: A bit more to the right there's a fella with half a body too, weird!

Yeah- it's a montage from several shots, rather than 1 picture. Hence the perspective changes as you pan about the image.

And for those of us that went to the main site:
http://www.gigapansystems.com/

You can buy a nice little robot that will take a few hundred pictures with your point and shoot, then you stitch them together later, not so much big brother as cool landscape tool.

my camera is as good as that- nearly- it will zoom in from miles away and then you can zoom in off it still further- and that is what is available to us - so what the fbi etc have must be amazing..

well you only got to look at what the papparazzi have or the tv when the pan out and you see how far away they really are.

All they could do is take a picture. I'm sure there's people on here that could cause more panic with less sophisticated equipment.

Bear for example. :D :lol:
