Here is their report:
"With a dream team of Gavin D Farrell, Michael Franz, and Julio Perez, we took the Roundshot VR Drive with a Canon camera to the highest man-made point in the Bay Area.
At 46 gigapixels, this might just be a new world record for highest-resolution imagery at the highest structure in SF altitude - shot at 1,811 feet (557 m.) above sea level!
The weather was intense. The adventure, too epic to sum up here.
But the result? Absolutely mind-blowing. And there’s so much more than just record-breaking panoramas—explore the full experience now at

A huge thank you to Sutro Tower Inc. for giving us the opportunity to tell the first and only end-to-end story of this iconic structure."
