DIY 130Mp camera - An amateur photographer who has a little technology know-how has produced his own 130Mp camera.

What do you get if you cross a flatbed scanner with a Canon lens? Well, if you're anything like a particular camera enthusiast from Japan, you'll have turned it into a 130Mp camera.

Might create some unusual effects as it would presumably be a long exposure but not in the sense of a normal one... if you took a photo of someone walking you'd have, say, his feet in one location & his legs/torso stretched out across the frame... odd  Smiley

Is it like going back to the old early days of photography when people had to stand still for a while Smiley
