Phase One shows 60.5MP digital back

Phase One today announced the future release of its flagship P65+ medium format digital back camera system, which is the first in the industry to offer a 60.5-megapixel sensor. This number translates to images sized at 8984x6732 pixels, with each taking up 180MB of memory as 8-bit RGB files. The professional-grade systems will spend their lives in studios, where its 40.4 by 53.9mm sensor offers about one-fifth more area than competing products and allows photographers to fully utilize 645 film-format wide angle lenses.

Surely its not for your average person to buy more for professionals. I might be wrong but perhaps its for things like huge mega sized billboard posters i dont know not sure how prints that size are done. There must be some people out there that use them. So far until now the highest mega pixel i heard of was 36 mega pixels. But your not going to need something like that in your average digital camera or phone. Lol.
