Amazing Hi-Def Inauguration Photo

kaisersozei · 01-28-2009, 05:48 AM

This is an email I received last night. Not sure about the technical specs, etc., but the link is pretty freakin' amazing.

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

It was a Canon that pulled together over 200 individual shots.

Each zoom in takes a second to focus ...and then you can see some amazing reactions.

Bonus points if you find Yo-Yo Ma .... taking a picture with his iPhone.

That is an awesome picture. The technology used to create this image is absolutely incredible.

That's really something! I'm surprised how thick the bullet proof glass surrounding the podium is. And most of the people look like they're half frozen.

i heard about this on CNN, thanks for positing the link so I could play around with it. Anyone find one of the chief justices falling asleep? He is near John Roberts.
