So would this mean you can snap a photo and not really about something being out of focus and just readjust later? That would be awesome.

Funny, Jobs makes a monumental stink about Samsung/Google copying Apple, and what does he do with Lytro?

Doesn't sound like anything new, just seems to be the lytro system that is already on the market, and that has hardly taken the world by storm so far. It seems the only twist is that it would work with the iphone, but they have such deep DOF already it hardly seems an advantage.

Knowing Apple, they will probably end up suing Lytro for copying the system that they designed.

Jobs copied everyone even down to Leica for the iPhone, but he called it "admiration tribute" :rolleyes:

On a smartphone you'd have to try really hard not to have everything in focus...


Think new Canon lenses are overpriced? Lots (and lots) of data will set you free!
