I put the New Scientist down next to my computer earlier, intending to inform the NG about this camera! I estimate it's going to be at least two weeks, possibly as much as 11 years, before we get a consumer version. We can only be thankful that they didn't go for foveon (I refuse to give that technology a capital letter). Hannah.

My guess is this thing is this big in order to map large areas at one time. Some Schmidt cameras can illuminate 27" wide film discs so doing this with the 1.5 gig sensor won't be difficult. -Rich
