Camera Gigapxl ™ captures exposure to the film in sufficient detail to further scan at resolutions up to four billion pixels. One gigapixel picture has a size of just over 44 000 x 22 000 pixels, and the image chetyrehgigapikselnye - twice as large in both dimensions - 88, 000 x 44 000 pixels.

Because immediately after fixing each exposure with dimensions 9 & quot; x 18 & quot; digitized and then stored in an environment with controlled temperature and humidity. All further processing and printing is performed to receive the scan (the dimensions of which are from one to four gigapixel). Consequently, real output from the camera and in what further work, a digital image.
