Ask the Experts: Light Field Cameras - The Future of Photography
Before the end of the Victorian era, the Kodak roll-film camera had arrived on the photographic scene and was followed by the first 35mm camera in the early 1900’s. In the 1950’s came the Polaroid camera, then instant colour in the 60’s, and the first digital camera in the 80’s.
Now, the latest scientific discovery that is set to reach the consumer market in the USA is the light field camera. Lytro, a start up company based in Silicon Valley, California are set to launch their light field camera by the end of this year, and believe that the development “represents the most significant shift in photography from film to digital in 1988.”
