AutoStitch Panorama 2.0 Gives The iPhone The Megapixels Of A Pro Camera

People think Texans own the whole “bigger-is-better” thing. But just look at the size of Canada — yeah, Canadians know a thing or two about big. No surprise then, that it’s a gang from Canada who are trying to squeeze billboard-sized images from the iPhone’s wee 3mp sensor.

Cloudburst‘s AutoStitch Panorama is a photo-collage app that, prior to the update, wasn’t able to produce images any larger than the standard iPhone camera image size. But with the update, a 3GS can now stitch up to 10 separate images together to form a single, massive 20mp image (unfortunately, 3G and Original users are capped at five-megapixel images).

To compare, that’s just one megapixel shy of the $6000 Canon 1Ds Mk 3‘s pro-level 21-megapixel output; pretty impressive, especially considering the app is just $3 (and at the time of this post, AutoStitch Panorama is on sale for $2).

Of course, megapixels aren’t as important as the quality of the lens or the sensor — but the ability to produce large, high-detail images on the iPhone 3GS should make AutoStitch Panorama a must-have for every iPhone photog out there. Look for a CoM review soon.
