My understanding is unless the pictures are truly outstanding, they won't consider anything less than a 48mb file and these size pictures can only be achieved on the high end FF dSLR's.

Providing you have a good quality image to start with it's quite possible to increase it's file size by use of software designed just for that purpose. For instance a full RAW NEF image from a Nikon D200 renders into a 28mb 8bit TIFF file, (don't bother with JPEGS for submissions). After initial tweaking in Photoshop or similar, it's easily possible to create a 48mb file or greater using a Genuine Fractals Photoshop plugin. Other software programs are available which can do a similar job. I've submitted many photographs of increased file size to various publishers and agencies over the years, if they are good enough and image content is what they require then they are acceptable by most editors. Image quality is paramount when considering a submission, it's no use sending in non descript below par photography, even if you have managed to increase it's file size to 48 Mb or larger!
