tnx
thanks, it looks amazing, my new wallpaper for sure
"I'm surprised it hasn't fully crashed" That's only applicable to every Adobe product.
the most impressive part of this is that it was able to select 70+ RAWs without crashing lightroom immediately
I use VSDC as my NLE and it can with some effort easily ingested +40k images for a time lapse video on only 16 GB of RAM. It takes >1 hour though.
@@heatherjm11 - Thats rubbish programming, if you're just selecting files and maybe interrogating file their properties, why would it crash?
& Sony Vegas
@@PrinceWesterburg because Adobe just cares about money, not how well the product functions or if thier consumers are happy.
Like Apple, they know their loyal fans will continue to buy whatever they release, whether it functions well or not, so why bother spending time and money making it good?
I'd imagine that Linus randomly advertises LTTstore to his kids at this point.
Probably their first words lmao xD

Fun fact: Lightroom can't do more than 400 images. Don't ask how I know.
i am not going to ask how you know
@@inkaytoo thankyou
I do feel like asking, but I won't
How do you know?
I've personally used Lightroom and I've processed way more than 400 images
Oh man I've not seen mention of the Brenizer method in like 10 years. One of my favourite little photography tricks
I fondly remember letting my Core Duo laptop with 2GB RAM churn for a few hours on huge panoramas with the Photomerge tool. Didn’t have the AI fill edge thing then though!
Expected: We got a exclusive Camera with 500mp sensor
Reality: MSI laptop is overpowered
I thought this is what they meant but they just whip out a laptop like bruh I’m so dumb
@@L39T nah the thumbnail is a camera and the title is shooting a 500 megapixel photo, definitely not stupid for thinking that
Hasselblad does sell a 400MP or so camera (really it's a 100MP sensor and it uses sensor-shift but it's still cool).
I was expecting some new 125MP medium format camera with pixel shift to make a 500MP photo.
It's Linus Style
"You can download the photo in the link in the description."
So that was a lie
Yeah
I was kinda disappointed
Floatplane only
😭
@@_Vesper how do you know? The vid is not up yet on Floatplane
Linus probably took a selfie of himself after having so many photos of him taken and preferred the selfie
That is such a weirdly specific situation lmfao
Brandon has such a great presence on camera, I'd love to see him in more videos
Ruthlessly roasting MSI while being sponsored by them. God I love this man's honesty lol!
I'm wondering what feedback he is receiving from his sponsors.
These bots are so damn agressive
@@ThKolle lmao it doesn’t even matter at this point. Linus can do and say what he wants😂
oOoOOooh! Can I be the first one to suggest he's roasting them because he's invested in his own laptop company?
@@TravisFabel valid, but Linus isn’t usually shy to roast a company for anything either
I've been using Photoshop's photomerge for years now, and the fact that "I'm gonna merge SEVENTY ONE images" went from being an obnoxious exaggeration for a desktop to legitimately possible on a LAPTOP completely blows my mind.
The algorithm's progressed pretty well through the ages, too. Considering smartphones use a similar tech to do panorama in realtime. Infact, I wouldn't be surprised if some manufacturer just modded it to work in both axes instead.
@@anotoman123 panorama has the benefit of being able to access phone accelerometer n gyroscope though
@@anotoman123 phones generate far lower resolution image though, making the stitching process much easier (as it can be an order of magnitude less precise)
I did something similar on a Vaio laptop I had almost 10 years ago and I had to leave it over night, it took about 13 hours to do a 200mp image. 8GB of RAM =DDD
@@retrorevival1 ouch hahahahaha
As a professional photographer "The Brenizer" method should be taken using a 135 or 200mm at the lowest f/setting or wide open. The idea is to achieve a narrow depth of field (DOF) with a wide-angle look. Great for portraits. A 50mm lens doesn't give the greater DOF, and taking more than 20 images is absurd-16 is usually sufficient. Adobe Camera Raw has a pano merge option that works well to convert the RAW files into a single DNG to be converted into JPG in various supporting applications. For processing, a laptop or PC workstation with 8-cores and 64 GB RAM is important. Those who read this may not have this interest, but the MSI Z16 laptop is a jewel but lacks the Ethernet Port and the 90 WHr battery where the GS66 Black Stealth provides a 99.9 Whr battery for a longer run time, which I own with 64 GB RAM, and it is super-fast batch processing and editing my sports photos.
I've been doing this for YEARS (long before there was an automated process for it!) and had no idea it had a name other than "panorama pictures" or stitching.
Hey, so for anyone attempting this method, there's different projection modes for stitching an image like this, but Lightroom/Photoshop is generally pretty good at compensating for misalignment of the camera and such. Getting a tripod and aligning it will yield way better results, especially when the seams between images aren't the best.
any experiences with moving objects in the pictures? cuz i see peopöe and animals which definitely didnt stand still for the entirety of more than 200 photos.
if they are center frame no problems i guess, but when they are in the edge?
@@TheScarvig I mean what do you think will happen lol
@@TheScarvig get the moving parts of the image first
I use microsoft ICE and shoot handheld generally - then cleanup any artifacting. Way easier than manual in photoshop imo.
@@TheScarvig you'll run into issues with parallax more than the problem of people moving. (unless that person is your subject, but you'll shoot them, then the surrounding in a Z pattern). Avoid chainlink fences or anything with tight geometry to save yourself a headache.
Next challenge: use Topaz Gigapixel AI to upscale each 24mp photo (using 6x, which is 36 times the pixels) into 864mp and then try to stitch it up. I'm pretty sure that your system will fail.
Seems like a great idea ngl
Doesnt work.
It cannot scale 6x it stops at 5,33x when importing a 24 MP image. Result will be ~683 MP.
@@TheTempic Gigapixel is awsome anyway - esspecialy for that price!
@Linus Tech Tips pls give link to foto !!!!
Topaz Gigapixel has no real AI. Results mostly are same you can get manually using filters in Photoshop. Gigapixel doesn't add pixels in photos, it just creates filters on them and stretches them.
Confirmed: In Canada, they just call Canada Geese “Geese”.
Lol

"Enough foreplay though, the technique we are going to be using to create the bigger picture" - Linus 2021 before bed
You know, i love watching linus on screen (wouldn't be on the channel otherwise), but the others are what really make this my favorite. Alex and his engineering, Brandon and cameras, Anthony and his Linux and retro knowledge. Everyone brings a different specialty that really elevates everything
I agree. Everyone has their special talents that they bring to the show.
Agreed. I was at one point more curious about why they were capturing Super Mario World in the background than what happened with the photo. Maybe because I knew of the method beforehand and was mainly interested in which Fujifilm lenses they were using :)
Linus walking the "a framework it ain't" minefield in a sponsored video when talking about upgradability is going to be my new favourite thing going forward.
I feel like he put a bit more pep in the positive note at the end to appease sponsors, I personally can't trust his laptop reviews anymore but they'll be entertaining at least!
I'm still in the camp that he could have helped framework without investing money even if it would be a poor decision time-investment-wise for LMG. His voice for right to repair is affected now, since he technically now benefits from it, even if in practice it would hardly ever influence Linus
@@nster3 I trust the Linus brand a bit more than that.
I do think however they should have highlighted the fact that upgrading the RAM required them to take the motherboard out more than they did. I feel like that could be over-course correcting in a way.
@@ArticTiger Haha I wrote that in my initial comment and but erased it before posting thinking since it's sponsored content and the only reason they didn't get the 64GB is LTT's fault, they wouldn't want to penalize MSI especially if MSI never mentioned upgradeability in the talking points
@Karan Shah Emphasizing right to repair, serviceability and the like helps but Framework be in the spotlight, and changes the conversation. If Louis Rossman, Linus, MKBHD never advocated for right to repair, the movement would have been quite different
@@nster3 sounds like your looking for faults before they even have time to manifest

Laptop manufacturers need to stop making upgrades difficult by requiring you to remove the motherboard to get to commonly upgraded components.
Tell that to Apple. With them everything's soldiered in, so the laptop you buy is the laptop you own. Zero upgrades possible. You can't even change your own battery. The price you pay for such a thin laptop.
Brandon: "They're not gonna know"
Linus: "They're gonna know"
who is Brandon?
This is by far the most confusing, insane, video.
From the moment I opened the video and saw the laptop, I was like: I'm sure the thumbnail was a camera, and the title was "Shooting a 500 MP...".
The product was super sweet, but yeah I had to make sure they didn't mis-title it.
"Rendering a 500MP photo" is probably more accurate 🙂
Masterful clickbait. I clicked it because I thought they were looking at a 500 megapixel camera.
In my work I do this all day using the PTGUI software and 500 shots of 42Mp A7RIII, getting gigapixel shots and it works perfectly on a laptop or a 32gb ram, ryzen 3900x desktop. Less than 20 minutes of processing time.
Using lightroom is not efficient at all for this kind of jobs.
Adobe is everything but professional in their image handling softwares.
Also Bokehrama has to be taken with a panoramic head with no parallax (finding nodal point). This avoid stitching issues!
May I ask what exactly you do? Where is this resolution needed?
Yeah they might have nice interfaces or a large number of features but they're quite lacking in terms of efficient code
I've actually stitched panos using Hugin on an Acer Switch 12 sporting an Intel Core M-5Y10a which has a 4.5W TDP, and it worked fine. Not sure what Adobe is doing to require such a machine and an hour of processing time...
@@Askaly hdri stitching for vfx and texture creation for some special cgi needs. for example i can shoot 32768x32768 pixels wide anisotropic fingerprints, dirt textures etc for extreme closeups needs, or just for clients that needs a 8 or 16K picture but extremely sharp, so I have to use downscale from 16 or 32K to 8 or 16k.
@@clfeuillet is it possible for you to upload this gigapixel picture? im really amazed this is possible and would like to see it
I love that we're seeing more and more 16:10 displays. It's about time.
Now if only we could see them for desktop monitors, that would be awesome.
It’s been a standard on Macbooks for so long I can’t remember when it started. The Macbook 1,1 in 2006 perhaps? It was also standard on PC laptops many years ago.
We desperately need desktop monitors with 16.10 ratio or 21.10 ratio with at least 144hz, True 10-bit color depth, HDR10 , DisplayHDR1000 nits, HBR3, DP 2.0 and HDMI 2.1, and it must have at least 100,000 full array local dimming zones. This world is not perfect. Why don't manufacturers just make a monitor with these specifications? 16.9 ratio sucks. Governments should allow to sell only 16.10 and 21.10 ratio monitors for a year or two. we can live our life whole hearted.
One tip for maximizing the image quality by shooting RAW: shoot one picture with wide lens to the rough area you want to shoot, then keeping the exact aperture, ISO, and shutter speed, shoot with tele lens panoramically. In Lightroom import all of them and _only_ edit the wide shot as a reference, when you're happy with it just sync the adjustments to the rest of the tele photos (if there's some over/underexposed photos.. well it's just a tiny part of one image in the end), and finally merge it as panorama. Also, while you shooting tele panoramically make sure to use manual focus and focusing on one point you want to shoot at the beginning and leave it there, that's the point of this method.
The Brenizer method is one of my go-to ways of shooting when I don’t have my medium format camera with. The amount of detail is insane when you start pixel peeping.
Thanks team, this is a HEAPS better way of doing a laptop review with legit real world usage. Please do more like this, this a great video :)
I used to do this all the time with Microsoft's Image Composite Editor (ICE). It has the AI auto-fill feature too and even supported videos.
It was so much easier to get a “working” image with it, but too bad it seemed like the development of it stopped many years ago.
Brandon: "You guys can download it in the link in the description."

I used to do this manually in college on a Sony VAIO laptop (15 years ago). It would take me about a weekend doing it with ~200 photos and there would be about 1-5 minutes wait-and-see time between adjustments, so I would do it while watching marathons of movies in my dorm. Now I have a workstation that I custom built to do it, with 128 GB of RAM and a 1 TB NVME drive that I use as a Photoshop scratch disk. I had to add my data RAID to the Photoshop scratch pool in order to save the last project that I worked on because I used over 1 TB of scratch disk space (luckily, it's 10 TB of RAID storage). Some of the work I make could be printed billboard size at photo resolution. I probably should scale that down before I build them because there's no way anyone is going to pay me enough to print one that big...
Maybe ask Linus if he will let you print something that big. Maybe build a computer just for the video to do this job.
hey i subscribed maybe one day you'll make a video showing your process or showing off your work. Super interesting stuff im sure people would love to see :)
Where can i see some of your work? Thanks in advance👍
@@vzdragon Thanks! Hopefully one day. The shoot process is very boring, as many of my friends and family can attest to. I'm the guy who holds up the group to take photos for 1-2 hours. Assembly on the computer is 10-20 times as long if I'm lucky and then I have to do the color correction and masking!
@@mikkelbreiler8916 I should have done a build video for my current machine, but I'd be curious to see what LTT would come up with that would put this rig to shame!
I have to say, very cool you guys did a video covering this method of hi-res photography that anyone can do with the right knowledge. I make equirectangular panos in a similar method to this but with a wide angle lens, they also come out to around 500 megapixels. Only suggestion is use a pano head next time, it helps tremendously with not missing any sections in your photo and more importantly with avoiding parallax error that causes rendering errors as seen at 9:25 with the tree. Oh yeh, I dont use lightroom so not sure about memory consumption, but with ptgui and Microsoft ICE 32gb of ram is plenty for this kind of render.
Honestly this is one of those tricks I'd love to use just to make phtotos from a vacation seem so much more fantastic to anyone I show them to. Another one I have used is taking a bunch of pctures of the same scene to get rid of a bunch of the other people in the photo that aren't my focus.
My family loved the pictures I provide to them after a vacation, and I think I could use this to give them even better ones.
500 megapixel photos?

for anyone wanting to try this, for a basic gigapixel make sure you lock your camera in manual mode so that all the settings remain the same, be careful of high contrast scenes because you might end up blowing out parts or having parts underexposed seeing as your exposure will be locked. Likewise scene with water or wind will also prove to be difficulty seeing as you won't be able to line up waves or swaying trees easily. You might want to shoot jpeg (as opposed to RAW) to reduce file size which means pay attention to the colour temp.
If you want to do the effect they referred to, use a telephoto lens, take a photo of your subject in focus, then lock the focus so you can get the rest of the scene with the nice blur
I did this method years ago for making a 360 panoramic tour of a school. Works quite well, but gets sketch with full panoramic stitching.
try ptgui for rendering composites like this, doesn't have content aware fill but renders way faster and you can repair your stitching manually if there's something off.
Hugin is also an option
PTGUI is the best!
Do you have any experience with Hugin? How do the two compare? I like the absolute control of Hugin, but it's a lot of work
used to stitch several >100 18MPix dngs for ~750Mpix output on 2008 Q9450 with 8 gigs of ram. Also tripod, Gigapan head with autopano software for Easy overlap management
@@NabekenProG87 Hugin is ok... they're pretty much the same thing but ptgui is a bit more polished software

Brandon is so much more confident in terms of hosting and I love it. Well done!
My HP laptop has 2 screws hidden by rubber feet. I just covered the holes up and left them out. No ill effects at all. Now if I ever do anything to it in the future messing with the rubber feet and causing them to fall off more easily is not a problem. That glue on them will lose its strength some each time if you take them off enough times. I only left those screws out because it has a lot of extras holding it together too. They hold so well that just one left in can make it impossible to get into the laptop without causing damage to it. That is why it is a good idea to look and make sure you didn't miss any. I also keep the screws in a small pill bottle and put the lid on when they are out so I don't lose them (they are all the same so it doesn't matter which one is which).
Part of the reason the tree got all screwed up is likely because there is too many photos you tried to render of the same feature. I found it’s best to overlap 1/3 on each photo, for less chance of the program screwing up your photo mosaic.
Yep, over shooting doesn't help. Just be methodical about overlapping enough on each shot and you should be good. Practice makes perfect.
This is what crime solvers use when they say "zoom in on that" and "can you enhance this photo?"
was gonna comment this with: "ENHANCE!!"
This is a really addictive technique to do in your photography and I've taught a lot of people to do it properly. 👍
I do them all the time, but then my laptop grinds to a halt when I go overboard with how many images I use...apart from that, it's pretty easy, like Michael Lau said, there are a few different projections to choose from so just pick the one that works best for you and the environment you're photographing.
12-16 photos has been my brenizeer sweet spot. photos usually taken in a roughly 4x4 or 4x3 grid. definitely use AEL/AFL if you're not rocking full manual controls and manual focus though

Linus: Shooting a 500 megapixel photo
Me watching in 240p: mmm that looks so sharp
the final image is insane. would have been cool to see use Fuji's pixel-shift to capture initial frames and then merge those into the final panorama. that would make the laptop sweat for sure. :D
Pixel sift doesn't really work for these kinds of images. Far too much movement in the leaves, water, cars and such. Also the camera needs to be on an incredibly solid tripod.
@@KP3droflxp for sure they would need to find a more appropriate subject matter but would be fun to see. the final image (if succeeds to render out) would be just insanely massive. :)

I do this when I'm shooting with my mavic 2 in tight areas or when I'm limited in altitude in airspace. Works wonders with getting wider top downs and still following the FAA rules
I've used this to make 360º panoramas with my drone, it automatically takes a 14MP panorama but it can save the photos separatedly and I end up with 100MP panorama using photoshop merger, i believe the total photos is like 20 photos for the 360º views that I put on google maps
I wanna see it, where did you take the photo ?
Me watching this on a 720p display: “This sure sounds cool…
There's no display in the world that can display a full 500 MP. If I'm not mistaken, even 4K only equates to about 12MP or so.
@@toshineon 8K monitors can display 7680 × 4320 or 33 megapixel photo (or maybe "99" megapixels if you think same way as camera marketing departments which pretend that the bayer filter is same as having real pixels). 4K monitor has "only" 8.3 megapixels.
i have wanted try this since I saw some guy years ago making a huge camera array and reading about how the military uses it too
Props to the editors of this video
When I saw Fuji in the thumbnail and a claim of 500 megapixels, I thought they were gonna do some stuff with the pixelshift features on their newer models. This is a technique I’m surprised I’ve never heard of.
There is actually something similar to this built into GCam on mobile. You can either take 360 degree spherical photos or merge 9 photos into one ultra-wide one
I swear panoramic photos have existed on phones for ages, and they take the photos automatically so you don’t end up with 71 pictures.
@@baconwizard Yeah, but this one is a bit different since you take the individual photos by pointing the phone on dots on screen and there are some modes which are not standard
@@africsnail4985 yep, I gave it a try after downloading GCam mainly for night-sight as my phone's night mode ain't that good.
But the stitching was rather bad even for regular panos, the 'fake' UW looked decent detail-wise but the fov looked rather weird, and the 360 was also average.
Maybe it's better on the Pixels
Or maybe it was this bad bcoz I tried all these modes on a beach.
@@sushimshah2896 Yeah, the stitching often isn't perfect, but I still find in useful and fun from time to time. Mainly the spherical mode.
The Brenizer method is so much fun to use. The pictures it makes are unlike anything else you can take in any other way. I do photography stuff as a side gig/hobby, and end up doing portraits for a lot of people. I love throwing one Brenizer photo into the bunch to see if they end up picking that one to post or send out or whatever; they often do.
This is absolutely sick. The pictures and laptop both.
Normal person - Carefully runs knife along a gap between taped cardboard.

My first year in college studying photography we had to this method on lightroom, let’s just say the iMac’s with 8gb of ram were loving life :) It’s great the results you can get though
I estemate it took about a week to finish?
@@Kevin-rk3ef only used around 50 images, took around 20 minutes! It was a 24mp DSLR so actually not too bad - but you couldn’t move the mouse because 100% cpu, gpu and ram was being used
If you have a Nodal compensating mount then the pictures look even better because every picture is taken with the same perspecive as iff from a single point. The blurryness mostly goes away and you dont get funky broken trees.
I wonder which reps were sweating more profusely while watching this video, MSI's or Adobe's? 😰
Linus: "I just bought stock in a laptop company, so I might have to recuse myself from laptop reviews!"

I thought this video would be about the hasselblad H6D-400c with a 100mp sensor and a system to move the sensor a pixel at the time to create a 400mp photo
This photography lesson was cool. More please.
Maybe someone else has said this, but this would work much beter with a nodal tripod head, which allows to position the camera in the no parallax point so when you rotate the camera there are no changes, and the stitching can be perfect. You can easily make gigapixel images with very little effort and no unwanted pictures (73 pictures is a lot more than what you need).
The nodal head is often used for seamless 360 images made with multiple pictures.

@@ragepoweredgamer tbf it’s a sponsored segment and not a review. So it might not apply?
Dude, that thing is so beefy I can almost feel my arteries clogging. Woof.
@4:03 "Enough foreplay though" Yes, we have quite enough of that nasty business... LOL
Thank you for inspiring me to finish a project that I've left unfinished for a while!
I started watching your videos a half hour ago and you are my fav CZcamsr now : )
I'm astounded how Lightroom didn't crash when he clicked it. No joke.
The possibilities omg, imagine doing this with tons of pictures from a telescope or a microscope !
Ive been shooting bokehramas for years and If I could give you two tips, it would be to either use a tripod so that the plane of focus dont move between each shot (something that can be obvous when you zoom in to the finished photo), or to hold the camera in portrait orientation, keep your left elbow against your body and balance the camera (while holding it with your right hand) on one finger that is approximately at the same plane as where the sensor is (there is a line on the camera showing where the sensor is), then try to stand as still as you can and turn/pivot the camera while balancing it on that finger. This helps me to not move the camera backward or forwards. (did that make any sense? im not a native english speaker...)
Also, love seeing people use that 50mm f1 lens! I love that lens!
I just love how Linus’s comment section is being filled with bunch of bots already just like penguinz0.
who doesn’t?
The abilities of modern cameras are genuinely impressive
I uploaded my Face Reveal.......
and software
This is more a software ability than a camera ability... The fact that we can stitch together hundreds of photos as one is the impressive part.
you forgot the software, a.i and the processor
y’all ever think of doing a series or channel talking about film gear? ive noticed you guys use serious cameras and have done a video with corridor crew. keep killing it 👌🏽👌🏽
Didnt really understand this video and why "i" would need it but in the end I found it really cool and interesting! thank you ltt :)
set the render process as low priority and you can continue to use your PC.
We have reached the download quota... RIP
I was bummed
What a downer! Cool channel btw!
LOL LINUS BROKE GOOGLE DRIVE
@@questionasker9536 how on earth does google drive not have enough power to download these files
I love how ltt content is optimised for ultrawide monitors :)
I love the plugs, the cornier the better, I’m so close to buying merch!
Nice, we can now see Linus dropping RTX3090's in 500 megapixels
You can eliminate parallax errors while merging by using a rig that rotates around your lenses optical center. Also Lightroom isn't always the best option for panorama merging.
I want to see Brandon host a video when the topic is all about cameras! I want to see his geekiness!! 💓
Did this a few years ago with an alternate-view cityscape of Montreal. The picture was massive and I could zoom RIGHT in and see all the details. I can't remember how many pictures I took, but I do remember it took forever to render.
Does anyone else remember Microsoft ICE? I mean, it didn't hold up to the modern software, but at the time it was an excellent lightweight photo stitcher. I actually have a couple of prints hanging on my wall from photos I took using this method. Don't know why they discontinued support on it, it was great.
I still have the installer for it. I’ve never fired it up ever since i got lightroom
2 things for if you wanna do it really properly (and not just to test like these guys):
1. Use a tripod and unless you have a panoramic head make sure there aren't things that are too close to the lens (they'll shift as you move the camera around and it messes things up)
2. Before stitching, remove the vignetting in each photo (so that you don't get light and dark spots, you can see it in their second image). An easy way to do this is by taking a Gray or white photo with the same camera and lens at exactly the same settings (same focus as well) and then subtracting it in Photoshop.
One of the best videos ive ever seen. Maybe because it will up my photography game if my machine can handle it.
Aww...Linus called Brandon his "dream photographer"
