Introducing the New Lytro Camera

The new Lytro camera($399 and up) is being introduced to photography lovers (like me!). Before working on his Ph. D. dissertation, Ren Ng, the founder and CEO of Lytro bought his first DSLR (Digital SLR) camera and decided to apply light field technology to it. The result was...the Lytro camera!

Usually when you take a picture from a normal DSLR camera, it takes the light from one part of the image. With a Lytro camera, it captures the light from all parts of the image.

After you take a picture from a Lytro camera, and download the picture on your Mac, (Mac is required for the Lytro application)  you can focus on any parts of the image you captured.

The Lytro camera starts shipping orders in 2012. If you want one, go to this website: https://www.lytro.com/ If you want to take a look at the amazing pictures and focusing options,  go to this website: http://www.lytro.com/living-pictures/138
