14MP Digital Images

These are images taken with a 14MP camera from Kodak.

The detail is as you would expect...freakin' amazing! Zoom in on the eyes and have a look at the detail, pay attention to the iris and the reflection.

Something like this does raise the question of security. If it is possible to get that much detail from a photo taken by a commercially available camera at a reasonable distance, then arn't Iris Recognition systems and other such biometrics at risk?

This is one such camera.
For more images have a look here and here.
If you look closely you can see the individual hairs on the skin. Impressive
