This is an email I received last night. Not sure about the technical specs, etc., but the link is pretty freakin' amazing.
This picture was taken with a robotic camera and weighs in at 1,474 megapixel. (295 times the standard 5 megapixel camera)
It was a Canon that pulled together over 200 individual shots.
Each zoom in takes a second to focus ...and then you can see some amazing reactions.
Bonus points if you find Yo-Yo Ma .... taking a picture with his iPhone.

That's really something! I'm surprised how thick the bullet proof glass surrounding the podium is. And most of the people look like they're half frozen.

i heard about this on CNN, thanks for positing the link so I could play around with it. Anyone find one of the chief justices falling asleep? He is near John Roberts.
