Budapest beat Paris with 70 billion Pixels

[Thunderbird 0]

It's done.

Get a look at it here and make a zoom to see the quality of the thingie :

It's rather impressive.

The previous record was Paris with only 26 Billion pixels.

Sorry, but Silverlight is not supported on this operating system.

Silverlight works on Windows and on Mac OS (Intel only).

Works on my Firefox. Pretty impressive, but i wish it was even sharper at long distance.

The medium distance looks nice but the close things like the wall...i expected more

sharpness.

[SD_BOB 10]

Anyone for a game of "spot the hungarian object"??

[Pathy 0]

Holy crap, thats impressive. My zoom/scroll wasn't working fully at first, and I was underwhelmed, but when I realised just how much there was to it, wow.

[NeMeSiS 11]

When fully zoomed in its not perfect, but when you realise how much there is in that picture it is very impressive.

[roberthammer 582]

Yea very nice , but needs to be more sharp :p

[TechnoTerrorist303 10]

There's Moonlight for Linux, it's an open source version.

But Silverlight stills sucks, I avoid everything Flash or Silverlight as much as possible.

Hi all

If you consider this a publicly available camera.

Then consider the cameras used in Spy Satellites are at least 10 to as much as perhaps 20 years ahead of what we see here.

We can all remember the boasts that a spy sat can read a car number plate from space, then that they could read a news paper headline over the shoulder of some one sat in cafe in Rome. I dare say nowadays they can read the article.

By the way, any one spot a human yet?

I did a guy walking his dog followed by a child. Woman pushing child in folding type pushchair and Child on Bike.

Reference Close broadcast antenna.

Left of antenna large village in valley.

Zoom in See public park/green space in front of houses.

Park path with houses one side and evenly spaced mid size trees other side

End house Right.

Continue right.

On Path Woman pushing child in folding type pushchair and Child on Bike.

Beyond this on path running left to right, that T junctions with same path as above.

Guy walking his dog followed by a child.

Kind Regards walker

Oh Walker, why do you have to turn everything into a great big conspiracy? :rolleyes:

Soul_Assassin, I really can't find that McDonald's sign for the life of me. Spent a good 30 minutes looking, but it's just too much area to cover. :(

The picture gives free advertisement to Samsung. I doubt Sony wanted that :D.

Any camera can have a more accurate image of a faraway object by using zoom.

Walker makes me laugh :)

I stumbled over this a few days ago, keeps you distracted for quite a long time.
