Sonys future 32 Megapixel camera can’t compete against this thing… ;)
We are all anxiously waiting for the new High-End with over 30 Megapixel Sony Alpha camera but it will in no way come close to the 570-Megapixel Intergalactic Camera shown here! The 74 CCD sensors monster has been built at Fermilab by an international team of particle physicists and astronomers. What’s the goal? They want to solve one of the great mysteries of the cosmos: What is dark energy?
One question….what kind of lens will they use?
