pictures are taken from a hill on a tripod with a superzoom camera (a.k.a bridge, prosumer ...), cameras which can zoom in alot. I usually use a kodak z8612 (12x optical zoom) but for this one i borrowed a fuji finepix s8000 (18x optical)

Ah, I seeNo use trying this with a resonably good 300m lens then, I guess. Cheers.

300 should be good enough300mm and 12MP i guess would be about as good as an 8MP and 450mm equiv. Also this was a fairly narrow field of view, if you can find a vantage point that fills more of the view, you can go bigger just by going wider/taller. another recent image crept over a gigapixel at only 150mm equiv just because it went the whole 360 degrees
and even if you dont manage a gigapixel, a few hundred megapixels is still enough to make a pretty impressive picture
