Hasselblad’s H3DII-50 - 50 Megapixel Digital Camera

Kodak just announced the first 50 megapixel digital sensor, the KAF-50100 Image Sensor and today Hasselblad has unveiled the first camera to use the new chip. No word on pricing yet, but the Hasselblad H3DII-50 is definitely the sharpest camera on the market.
What does 50 megapixels mean? Consider this: with a 50 megapixel camera, if you took an arial photo of a 1.5 mile wide field, the sensor could zoom in and detect an object the size of a small notebook computer. Which of course begs the question - do we need this?

Would the image even load to my PC?? If so, why not have it?

It uses memory cards and a live connection to store on the fly somehow - but talk about massive files….
