World Records: 320 Gigapixel Shot Is the Biggest Panorama Ever
An image of London made
by stitching together 48,640 exposures taken with seven Canon EOS 7D
DSLRs is the hugest panoramic photo ever, reports PetaPixel. The big
picture, taken from the top of
London’s BT Tower, offers a detailed, browsable 360-degree view of the
city. (Go here

was equipped with an EF 400mm f/2.8L IS II USM lens and Extender EF 2x
III teleconverter, and then attached to a Rodeon VR Head ST robotic
panorama head. It took three weeks to stitch the images
together. Read the full Story >>

Hi Jeff,
I loved this! It was a fantastic panoramic. I wish I could afford a GigaPan to do some better panoramas. I know I could do it without that, but I don't want to take the time to stitch them together in photoshop.

Stitching is actually pretty quick in PS as long as you're talking about say 8-10 images. A few mins at most. But that pan consisted of a huge almost 50,000 images, lol. We'd be stitching for a couple of decades. :)
