Lytro, a picture revolution

If you're a photo junkie, you would know how it feels when you took a photo that's out of focus, if only you can recreate the moment, but you can't. But do not falter, there's a new player in town with a new toys.

Introducing Lytro, the camera that allowed you to refocus your photo, after you took it. How the magic happens? In simple laymen term, a camera has sensor that detect light field, and this light field are usually finite, meaning there are limit. However, the new sensor in Lytro camera pick up all light field from the scene, which means it pick up the light direction, intensity and colour.

Now, with this, vast amount of data, you can change the picture to your desire, also, you would never has problem auto-focus since it grabs all the light field, making the photo capturing faster. It would also allow you to capture a low light scene better, without having to use a flash.

For more of this, go here and to their official website. The camera will reach market on the end of this year.
