#2For those who can't read Spanish, these are some tech details:
The gigapan is composed of 9750 pictures (f16, 1/800 S, ISO800) taken with a robotized Canon 5D MkII, a 400mm Canon lens and a duplicator (effectively 800mm of focal lens), and put together using Autopano Giga on a PC with two 6-core Xeons, 40GB RAM and 8TB disk space.

#3If there ever was a city on Earth who's beauty is worth 111 gigapixels, then surely it is Seville.
If you ever get the opportunity, GO THERE.

#4Isn't this sort of pointless? If it were from a single sensor, or a single shot of a camera with multiple sensors, it might be something, but anyone can take a limitless number of zoomed-in images and stitch them together. How about someone stitches together all the Google street view images of I-95 into a big panorama? New world record?

Quien no ha visto Sevilla - no ha visto Maravilla! but Quien no ha visto Granada - no ha visto nada!

I would pay for the dataset of these individual 9750 images. Anyone with gigapan camera cares to share/sell some gigapixel images?

"...anyone could have done x..." is such a silly idea. The point is they didn't, this guy did. Just like Mark Zuckerberg made Facebook, or that kid who made Chat Roulette. Anyone could have but they didn't.

#8Interestingly, all graphical advertisements in the picture have been replaced with clickable ads for superinventos.com (e.g. the bus stop on the left side of the river)

#9And here is Paris - also a good looking town

Zoom-able panorama. Not quite so many pixels but still pretty good.

Well, quite seriously, if it was so, then why I see just some very large photo of a very dull and ugly regional town somewhere?
