Chinese manufacturer Penchan has done it! A 5.5 terapixel camera!
Who woulda thunk it? The Chinese company Penchan has developed a camera with a whopping 5.5 Terapixel resolution, or in layman’s terms, 5,500,000 megapixels. Yes, really. We just got off the phone to Canon and Nikon and it’s safe to say, they’re petrified.
When we told Hasselblad about Penchan’s new product, they vowed to get out of the industry as fast as their little Swedish legs could carry them.
But, to obviously soften the blow to their competitors, they encased it in a powder blue cover and painted a little penguin on. Those darlings, they really *do* care about their rivals’ feelings.

B.t.w. I always thought “Penchan” was some form of pidgin for “penguin,” considering the little creatures in the display.
I actually have one of these! Got it in a hotel souvenir shop in Japan about 6 years ago, and it still works. More than can be said of the Canon I got around the same time. When you press the button it plays various outtakes from some Cartoon series, probably in Japanese. Except for a periodic “ale you leady?” Love it!

You DO realize that the manufacturer made a false statement on this and that the whole post is sarcasm…

No worries, I just painted “6 Terapixels” on the front of my Nikon. All’s well again.
