Any photographer that could explain how this was taken/possible?
"The shot was created with a pair of Sony A900 cameras, fitted with 400mm lenses. The cameras were mounted to a rotating robot which pounded the shutter button for two days. The images were then processed over another two days. The end result is a 200 GB file." -
I still don't get it. The camera and lenses look like something everyone would have access to. How come they managed to take such huge pictures with sick zoom capabilities?

Don't worry. It's hard knowing geography that is not related to one's own environment.
