Hence... This camera
Not to mention

you cant take a scanner outside, open it up and point it at a subject, like a city scape or a landscape, and garner an image from it. It doesnt work like that.
They dont make scanners that are able to do what this image back does.]]>Mar 10th 2007 1:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Mar 9th 2007 6:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/
Interpolation reduces image sharpness, so the resolution goes down. Though it is not 413 MP in the same way we tend to think about it, the resolution captured in these images will be better than a 416/3 MP sensor would be.]]>Mar 9th 2007 8:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Feb 10th 2008 3:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Mar 9th 2007 7:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Mar 9th 2007 7:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Mar 9th 2007 7:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/
As a result, reporting pixel count in the way done here is very misleading, because it doesn't at all lead to a number comparable to what people expect. For almost every image that it might capture in the real world, the visual resolution advantage over a 130Mpixel Bayer-sensor camera is at most 50% and yet they use a 3x multiplier to count each photoelement as a pixel even though they are colocated in space and thus can't capture more spatial detail.]]>Mar 9th 2007 10:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/
Because the Louvre won't let you take the painting down off the wall and slap it on your flatbed scanner.

There was a time when subjects had to hold still for minutes when they were getting their portraits taken.
Back to the present--for architecture, still life (think things you buy like jewelry and cars), art reproduction and some landscapes, this is the back to get. It's designed to fit on large format cameras that have perspective controls so that building doesn't look skewed (or can be even more skewed). Obviously someone will use the highest quality lenses for this beast. Especially considering the family sedan price tag. ]]>Mar 9th 2007 10:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Mar 10th 2007 12:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Apr 2nd 2007 10:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Mar 10th 2007 1:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Mar 10th 2007 7:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Mar 10th 2007 4:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/Mar 10th 2007 10:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/09/betterlight-intros-416-megapixel-digital-camera-back/
