I have used a camera of similar size,the one i used was on a rail system and use air suction to keep the film in place,i think it took up to an 16x20 neg

I dunno but it doesn't look as big as the 20x24 polaroid.......(available for rent btw)

There was an equally large camera in the news not that long ago, but I can't quickly find the item.

I like the idea of going larger, but I draw the line at cameras this size.

I took this at Epcot, Florida in 2005. It was sponsored by Kodak, who were promoting digital photography. Lot of people were still using film as late as then.

Welcome Jerry


I know its a building and can't be moved but if your gonna go to all that trouble to shoot the Worlds largest photo, couldn't they at least put something interesting in front of the lens, like......I dunno a knackered old Dakota or The Chinese state Circus or Tracey Emins bed.......something.........anything

Hi joxby,

Probably they could have (or having choosen a different hangar with a better view ), but I think that there main challenge was to prove that it is working.

Maybe next time, if they take the next capture ...
