Two Hasselblad H4D-50 cameras with 50 megapixel digital sensor backs, complete with a 150mm lens on the top and a 100mm lens with tilt shift adapter on the bottom were used to capture the extreme level of detail required for the photos. Both cameras were mounted vertically -- one on top of the other -- and were linked together to trigger simultaneously whilst being manually rotated at 10 degree increments, using a Manfrotto 303SPH panoramic head mounted on a standard tripod.
