Will this enable higher quality 3D scans, or are the 2 systems so different from each other that it's not relevant?

just spent 30 minutes on that picture... awesome stuff. But it's not a 61 GP camera,it's a composite of thousands of images... so your argument is invalid.
the 50 GP camera can pretty much do what it took them months to put together, is a single shot.

AFAIK 3D scans use laser scanners, so I wouldn't think it has a direct application.

Or to be attached to a telescope to see far enough back in time to watch you rape your first dinosaur chicken.

I knew they used lasrs, but don't they go into a camera after they bounce off?

no. Hey Geoff, still got that widescreen CRT monitor with a scratch on it? (Scratched with a rock, for those that don't remember.)
