The largest modern container cranes are classified as "Super-Post Panamax" (for vessels of about 22 container rows wide and/or more). A modern container crane capable of lifting two (2) 20-foot (6.1 m) long containers at once under (end-to-end) the telescopic spreader will generally have a rated lifting capacity of 65 tonnes. Some new cranes have now been built with 120 tonne load capacity enabling them to lift up to four (4) 20-foot (6.1 m) long or two (2) 40-foot (12 m) long containers. Cranes capable of lifting six (6) 20-foot-long containers have also been designed. Post-Panamax cranes weigh approximately 800–900 tonnes while the newer generation Super-PostPanamax cranes can weigh 1600–2000 tonnes.
When photographing modern architecture you can get away with using a much more modern, abstract style. Experiment with wide angle lenses to produce extreme perspective, or photograph the building from unusual angles. If proximity is an issue, consider stitching panoramas. When shooting with cameras with no front of rear movements (4x5 or 8x10 view camera; the camera traditionally used for architecture), corrections will most likely need to be made for keystoning or converging lines. This can be accomplished easily with image processing programs.
