With my GigaPan computerized tripod head I have shot pictures of over a gigapixel in size. Using it is rather like setting up a shot with a plate camera. It takes time and planning, and of course the computer processing time is slow. Many shots only call for a few hundred megapixles and process much faster. See http://www.gigapan.com/cms/shop/store#gigapanstitcher for more info.
In my opinion GigaPans' hardware is good but their customer service leaves much to be desired
Interesting link. I did quite a bit of panoramic stitching a few years ago, mainly using PT Gui, but this site would have interested me then.
Photoshop is much better at stitching than it used to be, but I have been a little disappointed with the couple of attempts I have made recently with the Fuji and was thinking about getting PT GUi for the Mac. I might have a look at this software but the head is going a bit far!
