Redundant Array of Inexpensive DSLRs.... On my drive home from San Luis Obispo today, I had the crazy idea that for the price of a medium format camera, you could make a bracket that would securely hold four (or more) relatively inexpensive DSLRs, with identical(*) decent lenses, trigger them simultaneously, and use software to combine the images into one extremely high resolution, or high dynamic range, image. This would have the advantage of all of the shots being taken at the same time, and for landscape photos, the parallax difference would likely be negligible. I'm curious of any one knows of any work along these lines... stitching images from multiple cameras, taken at the same time, rather than a single camera taken over a longer span of time. * By identical I mean the same make and model, individual variation is inevitable. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
