| Coolness: 339750 | ok, i just looked at that page and know what? that shits fake.
22megapixels would be the equivalent of a 70" monitor running at 100dpi no such monitor exists, nor does any recording media that can handle such datarates. especially not in such a small package. |

| Coolness: 685675 | Dude, HDTV recordings, while I don't remember the megapixel equivalent, films at 60 FPS and each frame is over 180mb
also, [ www.google.com ] |

| Coolness: 339750 | 22MegaPixels with a tinyass lense like that? seems like crap, along with those pictures they post showing how it works.. that looks like any digital cam. |

| Coolness: 339750 | and as for 180megs per frame, that's BS.
[ answers.google.com ] HDtv is actually 2megapixels per frame. which is NOWHERE near 180megs unless it's got some sort of reverse compression that makes files bigger for no reason at all. |

| Coolness: 685675 | hell, "analog" cameras have tiny lens and they have NO megapixels to worry about. |

 Coolness: 128780 | Evolution or digicams?
Evolution: Human's will no longer evolve physically, if anything we will somewhat De-evolve because of our bodies getting used to all the anti-biotics and all the crap we get in food (especially meat). Survival of the fittest (natural selection) no longer occurs because the weak and sick get stuffed with medication to keep them alive and reproducing. But evolution is still happening through technology. With every new day, we know a little more, and our minds evolve parallel to the technology which I believe compensates for the lack of physical evoltion. But ultimatly, does this mean we will merge with machines when our bodies can no longer cope and become like robocop? (I wouldn't mind being a robot, but a Cop... Ehh!) Digital Cameras: I don't see the need for 22Megapixels right now... As Dj neoform said it would take a large monitor to view the picture and no printer can reach that resolution right now. Film cameras are still definately superior. I still enjoy developing my B/W pictures and find them to be superior to anything I can do with a digicam... I have a 3.2 megapixel and I don't even use the maximum resolution most of the time because I don't need it! Neways... |

| Coolness: 174175 | there is still human physical evolution occurring, it's the nature of the world to be in constant change. Just recently a child in Sweden was born with twice the muscle mass as a normal child. Scientists are attempting to locate the enigma in the child so they may replicate it and perhaps end obesity. The problem with human evolution is that it is no longer evolution through environment, but by human hand itself. In short...we are fucked. |

Exactly, we try to change the environement around us more that it changes us. It's now in the hands of the scientists (hopefully not too much in the hands of their boss (aka. Bush)). I just read that there are and average of 3 harmfull mutations per generation [ www.onelife.com ] But do you think genetic manipulation will help on the long run or be our downfall? |
