It would be nice, but I feel like they missed the mark. Such a feature is more important to the slightly more pro public and the camera they released is everything but. It's interesting but is the average P&S customer going to spend a premium($400) to buy a camera for a feature that they probably don't care about to begin with and will rarely use. As it stands right now I only see a richer niche oh-I-just-wanna-have-it market going after it.

Ive been ranting on G+ about this lol.
Its an interesting concept but in its current incarnation I don't see the point. Its tiny res Flash based click to focus toy images for Facebook.
Even the examples on the their website seem fairly pointless: 2 flowers to focus on; man or surf - really, whats the point?
I can see putting party images on Facebook where you can focus on bob puking in the background but for $400! really?!
Im really not keen on the design either, it looks cheap and is just squared off torch with the shutter button in an awkward position and judging by the video the zoom is not the easiest things to use. Having the display on the rear seems odd too.
I guess its design by necessity.
Plus, what the hell is a "light field camera" anyway, the 'science' behind it on the site is vague enough to mean little.
I can see some hipsters getting in quick enough before its popular to strap 2 to their faces as digital binoculars but tbh that ships probably left already anyway as I'm sure its too popular for hipsters by now - and too cheap :\

Woooo...the army would love this! Shoot first and then get the guy later.
