Re: Let's get into real cameras

Read again, obviously if PS could not handle a file larger than 2GB then he 
could not had stitched the images together. It is a limitation on what can be 
scanned in. Probably a buffer limitation. And it will probably not remain one 
for long. But right now it is a pretty real limitation.

All of which proves, once again, that the amount of memory or file storage that 
"no one would ever need" is too small.

That's not quite true.  Here's the word from one of the developers of PS:

What's the largest sized file that PS 6, 7, and 8 can handle. I've been
told that they won't take a file larger than 2GB. Is the limit actually
less than that?
 
     6.0 and 7.0: up to 30,000 x 30,000 pixels, file size on disk up to 2GB
 
     CS: up to 300,000 x 300,000 pixels, file size on disk up to 2^63 bytes
     (that's more than 8 billion GB) for Large Document Format (PSB). Some
file
     formats have format-defined limits less than that, such as TIFF being
     limited to 4GB

There has also been a thread running there where it seems it is not
posible scan 

in a 4x5 image greater than 3200dpi into Photoshop. Though the guy has
managed 

to stitch two partial scans together. We are talking images greater than
2GB 

here, just to compare to your DSLR.
