Wow! New light field cameras coming this year!
It’s seldom new tech actually really surprises me. It’s not because of anything but that most new tech is old tech just bumped up a notch. It’s incremental. Think data networks and mobile phones… 2G, Edge, 3G, HSDPA, 4G, LTU, ABC, XYZ… yada yada. It’s all a progression. Wireless data, just faster.
Along comes the Lytra camera. Boom. Cameras will never be the same again. This new world first “light field” camera for the masses is sure to shake things up.
Once you’ve had a look at the article, their website, then play around with the sample images here http://www.lytro.com/pictures/lyt-8/ Go on. Click on a spot in the foreground, background. Double click to zoom in. Nice huh?
