New Post: How to handle very large Images?

Hallo,

is it possible to load image files which will need more that 2 Gb of Ram?

I found out that I can create a Writablebitmap which is over 2Gb with .net 4.5 like that.

new WriteableBitmap(30000, 30000, 96, 96, PixelFormats.Pbgra32, null);

But unfortunately I could not load a Image file with these dimensions from my hdd. :(
