Product details

The 40 Megaray (instead of MPixel specification) and the 1.5-inch sensor enable spatial storage of images to create a 3D effect. Thanks to the revolutionary technology, you can manually change the focus point even after taking the shot. With the innovative light field technology, you can change the focal point at will after the capture, allowing you to sharpen the area in the image that interests you. This innovation makes autofocus unnecessary!

Highlights:

  • Revolutionary 40 Megaray light field sensor
  • 8x optical zoom (30-250mm equivalent in 35mm)
  • Constant aperture of f/2.0
  • Large 4-inch touchscreen

Innovative Technology:
The 1-inch image sensor captures the direction of incoming light rays and stores this information. This secures all necessary image data to allow for focus adjustments at any time after the shot.

Fast Capture:
With the ability to refocus after the fact, the camera does not require autofocus, ensuring fast shutter speeds without any delay.

30–250mm Lens:
The lens features an 8x optical zoom and a constant aperture of f/2.0.

Generous 4" Touchscreen:
The display allows you to immediately view and check the "living images."

Lichtfeldfotografie hat durchaus die Chance zur Zukunft der Fotografie zu werden, Lytro hat hierfür einen weiteren, wichtigen Grundstein gelegt. Die Lytro Illum schafft es, das äußerst komplexe Thema Lichtfeldfotografie auch für Fotografen ohne Doktortitel in Physik einfach nutzbar zu machen...

Dass die Lytrofotografie noch nicht da angelangt ist wo sie letztendlich ihren Platz hat, sollte auch mit dem Modell Illum klar sein. Allerdings entstehen mit der Lytro Technik einzigartige Aufnahmen, die Räumlichkeit sowie Schärfe zum Vorschein bringen, die andere Modelle nicht erreichen. Das Modell Illum ist eine gute aber keine perfekte Kamera, wobei der Schritt in die richtige Richtung geht.

Auch wenn der Hersteller die Lichtfeldfotografie enorm nach vorne gebracht, wobei sie aber dennoch nur als Zweitkamera zu gebrauchen ist. Die Performance sowie die Bildqualität reichen derzeit nicht an gängige Modelle heran. Trotzdem lassen sich damit interessante Bilder schießen, wobei die Bedienung extrem einfach ausfällt.
