Actually it is a many trick pony. Jeff, it's not that the processor decides the plane of focus - it doesn't decide anything. The photographer decides the plane of focus.
I find it's refocus ability the most use for extreme close-up photography - one trick that Lytro cameras do very well. The DOF of a macro shot is very thin. Being able to make small adjustments after you can see the picture large is very helpful, in my opinion.

Thanks Chris.

Chris, question for you: how do you take one of the photos and make it into a regular JPEG? I'm still getting used to the camera, and am definitely enjoying it, but haven't figured out all the nuances.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Anyone still using theirs? I ended up selling mine last year, and actually turned a profit on it!
Ultimately, the IQ was just not that great, and the re-focusing technology just got a little old after a while, at least for me.

Too bad this product fizzled. They should have done a bit more research as far as UI goes. A closed system is not ideal for widespread adoption; they should have allowed external cards, for one (cardinal, not pronoun).
Wasn't this product just a test... something to show the capabilities in action? I wouldn't say it's dead yet... it just might take many years.

I've been using mine to do 3D photography, which it can do with a single exposure:

The founder of Lytro used to climb at my home rock climbing gym here in the South Bay Area. I recognized him because I read about the Lytro cameras when they first came out. I don't know what became of Lytro (sold and ceased operations?), but he was a strong climber.

Hello
You need a pair of red/cyan specs. The picture is with cropping out of the Lytro Illum. There are some artifacts in the upper part of the picture (the wire).
The picture is accepted by StereoPhotoMaker.

I had to made the picture fit for the forum: 1500 x 1500 and a smaller JPG quality. The original has less phantom parts/shadows.
The original has 4000 x 400 and 8.2MB.

This service could be compared with Flickr and others. It was closed before I bought he camera last year. With the (still available?) desktop software one has the same features, but for his own pictures only.
The reviewers have written the concept to death. Too big, too heavy, too small pictures, etc. The Leica SL can be compared, except that the SL delivers big pictures.
Somehow one can compare this research project with the Foveon sensor. A fabulous idea, but with some disadvantages, perhaps tried too early in time.
The Canon R line uses in a very small (but more useful) scale the same concept. Namely a sensor, that collects depth information.
