kinda cool that you can focus pictures after they are taken. i don't get the facebook/twitter thing tho', it seems kinda lame if you can only view your images from specific sites or hardware...

Well... lightfield imaging is still in it's infancy, the files are quite large as they are information heavy. The current cameras only generate a 1-2 megapixel image. There's no way to allow you to present the image with full features in a current format.

It really isn't Photography as it doesn't Create images. It's a point and shoot / capture the moment type of device. and with light field, 3D is pretty much built in.

i don't get it, what's so special about the camera?
