AMAZING New Camera and Video Technologies for Home Use

[Elephant Tipper 431]

First, the Lytro camera which is based on the light theory of a multi-faceted insect eye.  This camera collects light traveling in multiple directions which allows the original photograph to be refocused for different depths of field.  STUNNING !  https://www.lytro.com/living-pictures/49072  When the picture (slide of pics) loads click ONCE on an unfocused spot to bring it into focus.  Double click on the photo to zoom in/out.

The second is Samsung's new Beam phone just introduced in Barcelona.  Really fun !  Shoot video/photos and allows the image to be projected up to 50" in size onto a surface for viewing.....like projection television.

Three clips at the bottom show its potential.  This will be a hit ! Or, it might be embarrassing for others.  http://global.samsungtomorrow.com/?p=11621

That camera is amazing and I might just have to order one soon.   Not sold on the phone/projector thing though.  I have a home projector that I paid over 2k and I know it takes good conditions to enjoy it. 

Thanks for the links.
