I had no idea anyone was making photos that big. I wonder how long that took to process.

Its crazy, I first seen one of Dresden which claimed to be the largest as of December 2009

http://www.gigapixel-dresden.de/dresden26GP (external link)

some of the processing details were posted on it

The picture was made with the Canon 5D mark II and a 400mm-lens. 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. With a resolution of 297.500 x 87.500 pixel (26 gigapixel) the picture is the largest in the world. (stand December 2009)

That one from the first link i posted smashes that now.

Does anyone know how one would go about to make one of these things? I'm guessing a special tripod is required that would automate the picture taking, and that you'd require multiple days to take the images during the right lighting conditions. Would I be wrong?

I doubt my HD is large enough to hold even one of these pictures.

What size is the lens? I am going to say one similar to this one? (LINK) (external link)
