Due out later this year, uses a sensor array to allow change of focus on the computer. Theoretically, it should let one reproduce view camera tilts and swings, I'd think, but the article doesn't mention that.

A couple of years ago, someone mentioned here that computational photography had a great future. If it's decently implemented in its first iteration, it will definitely start something new

Just discovered the same camera presented here



In Lytro website my IE browser seems to doesn't support all functionalities.

Will try with Firefox.

Have a Nice Day.

I like the bit about the post production lighting. Trying to see if I can get a place in the gutter while there is still room for us ex-photographers...  ;D

Well, you can always do what us amateurs have done, get a day job and do photography for fun.  :)
