The Light-Field Camera



Something New for 2012, The Lytro Light-Field Camera:


Will this be the future of photography?





The Industry Standard for the new millennium:


Hasselblad H3DII-31, Medium Format Digital Camera, yields 31 megapixels, $17k in 2008





The epitome of excellence for 20th Century film cameras:

Hasselblad Medium Format Film camera, 6 x 6 cm negative yields 40-50 megapixels, $1,200 used




Still the trusted camera for beginning photography after all these years:

The Pentax K100, 35mm negative yields approx. 8 - 16 megapixels, $120 used.
