Hasselblad Launches 39 Megapixel Cam

Just when you thought 12 megapixels seems like a lot of resolution to play around with, along comes someone (namely Hasselbald) and ups the insanity bar with a 39 megapixel D-SLR camera!

Here’s what Let’s Go Digital has to say about the H3D II:
A complete DSLR that is much more than the sum of its parts, the H3D II is peerless in terms of its combined image quality and flexibility. While retaining its full digital lens line and the choice of 22, 31 or 39 megapixel capture units using CCD image sensors up to 48x36 mm – the largest currently available and more than twice the size of even the largest 35mm camera sensors – the Hasselblad H3D II now has a large, bright 3-inch display, which affords both improved viewing of captured images and lower power consumption.

Currently selling for €17,900, I seriously doubt if this will go "consumer" anytime soon. Read all about it here.
