notice the pink ” FEAR US” poster. The camera manufacture definitely should be afraid of these guys i think. Refocusing? Nice!

November 8, 2009 8:14 am | #2This isn’t just about HDR. HDR is a poor example of this camera’s options. Picture a professional DSLR with the customizability of say an iPhone. This platform allows endusers and other companies to write programs that really push the boundaries of photography and photographic equipment as we know it. If you think this is about in-camera HDR and little more, you’re sadly mistaken.

November 8, 2009 9:13 am | #4Can change focus? Does that mean it will be able to take 3d pictures and movies?
November 8, 2009 9:25 am | #5How the hell are you thinking now?To make a 3d picture you need to take 2 pictures from two different angles, each corresponding to where an eye could be. Focus hasn’t got anything with that to do.

Then you put ccds on the inside panels of this thing and I guess you can compute the 3d location of the pixel within range, which I guess you can vary by changing the angle of the panels and adjusting the focus. That would be nice!
