<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 1216058, member: 15199&quot;]This is a new type of digital camera from a developing company which has aspects coin photographers might find very interesting. <a href="http://www.lytro.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.lytro.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.lytro.com/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>It is a camera that focuses after shooting and not before, and captures a block of digital info at different focal planes with a microlens array. If you were taking a photo of a coin, click first and then bring portions into sharp focus as needed. Check out their photo gallery. You could focus on the surface of the coin and then on the devices, people would stop saying your photos are out of focus. It would not replace &quot;stacker&quot;, but I would guess that would come later since the info is there, just needs to be implemented. Also the depth of image info is such that it can generate 3D from the single shot which can be viewed on a screen with 3D glasses.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have no financial interest in this company. I suspect their first try will be like the Apple Lisa, but I like the direction.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
