OK, a couple of notes. If you did the calculation on the basis of image area the 20X24" back should run on the order of $528,000 dollars. I am just figuring that the 20X24 at 480 square inches is about 24 times the area as the 20 square inches of a 4X5" negative. Might stretch our budget a bit.

In terms of pixel count, a 20X24" file in RGB at 10,000 spi should come in at under 300 G. I figure that size would be a knock-out blow to my old Mac.

But this would sure save time over makin those 27 different exposures for the HDR work!!
