Lytro Camera With Wireless Capabilities And An iPhone App

The Lytro camera has wireless capabilities and a new friend in the iPhone, and a functionality-adding firmware update. Its new-found Wi-Fi capability means the light field camera can work with an equally new iPhone app, which allows users to share and view refocusing pictures while on the go.

Previously, users had to import their living pictures (as Lytro likes to call them), via a desktop application, before uploading them for sharing. But, following on from an update that added manual controls, the camera has now received another that turns on its wireless capabilities.

This means Lytro-wielding photographers who update to firmware v1.2 build 201 can use their camera's Wi-Fi capability to send images to an iPhone running the free Lytro Mobile app.

The Lytro camera lets you create living pictures. It’s the first consumer camera that records the entire light field. By capturing the light field  you can refocus pictures after you take them. Tap the touchscreen on whatever part of the picture you want to bring into focus.

Lytro’s newest light field capability, Perspective Shift, allows you to interactively change your point of view in a picture, after you’ve taken the picture.The Lytro camera is built around revolutionary technology that
captures and processes the entire light field.

The free Lytro Mobile App, combined with your camera's Wi-Fi capabilities, makes it possible to share your living pictures directly to Lytro.com and Facebook from your iPhone or iPod touch. The app also lets you re-share existing living pictures to Twitter or Facebook and to save them as an animated GIF that you can email or SMS to your friends and family.

The price of Lytro Camera starts at just $399.
