This photo was taken by an iPhone 4S running on iOS 6 with Panorama.

Dimension is 10800 × 2514 and the file size is 18M. It is pretty damn awesome. :D

 
I'm amazed Apple is giving this for free to iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S customers. :D

1. It's free because it's just software using the existing camera.

2. It's also for the iPod Touch 5. Pretty much any iPhone/iPod with an A5 or better CPU in it.

3. It's NOT for the iPhone 4 or 3GS - you need a multi-core CPU for it.

Photobucket pulled it down to 100kb though.

Will try this next time I'm at Anfield :D
 
Phil said that Panoramas taken on iPhone 5 are 28 megapixels. Is it also 28MP on iPhone 4S?

No, he said that photo he showed on the screen, the landscape of the bridge, was 28MP, not all panoramic photos are 28MP
 
Panomama

So this does works on the 4s? What about the new ipad?

Conflicting info here on Apples site.

When readng this:

http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/

In the Notes section at the bottom of page it states:-

6. Panorama is available on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, and iPod touch (5th generation).

But NOT the iPad 3

But then @ http://www.apple.com/iphone/built-in-apps/

It says.....

"Shoot panorama photos.
Capture more of what you see with the new panorama feature. Just tap to shoot and move the camera across the scene — up to 240 degrees. The gyroscope, A6 chip, and Camera app work together to create one seamless shot. And with a resolution of up to 28 megapixels, every shot is stunning."

This almost sounds like it needs the A6 chip for Panorama.

I don't by this... *As it can't be THAT intensive.... Its only joining shots.

This basically is saying it needs the A6 chip for Panorama.

Seriously it works fine on the 4S.

As usual, Apple aren't the first to do things, but they sure do it best.
