I was searching the forum but could not find out if anyone else than me has used a Lytro camera and LEGO. Or am I searching wrong? I see in the "Bricks Flicks & Comics" part there is a Tutorial: Choosing a Camera. Maybe it should be updated with a light field camera like Lytro? For those who don't know what's special with a light field camera like a Lytro camera, the short story is that is more like a "living picture" where the viewer select the focus point on the image after the photos has been taken, rather than the photographer selecting the focus point before taking the photo. Here is a more in-depth explanation: http://spectrum.ieee.org/consumer-electronics/gadgets/lightfield-photography-revolutionizes-imaging/ I have the first generation Lytro camera and have followed the development of this camera since they announced it many years ago. First it was only available in the US, and also the software was for Mac users only at first. But for over a year ago they was also available in the Europe and also had software for Windows. I searched a lot to find a shop here in my country but could not find any for a long time until I found it at the electronic shop at the airport near Oslo :) The second generation Lytro camera called Lytro Illum was released a few month ago and are more like an DSLR camera (but without the R) and even more powerfull. I have tried it out some and as I expected it works just perfect for small scenarios like a LEGO town or inside a LEGO building. You can see some of the pictures I have taken with the camera here: https://pictures.lytro.com/f0nix Now I just need more training for taking a good picture with it since you have to think different when taking a picture with this type of camera. :) Is there anyone else that have a Lytro camera? Have you tried to take any LEGO related photos with it? What does the rest of the people think of this photo technology? Do you think it works with LEGO creations?
