Bristol 10k

Having filmed last weeks 10k for Love Running, I took what footage I had and edited it into a short video.

Is it to be trusted?
Should we want to fund an army that has a similar list of crimes as the army they hunt? why Kony? why not another tyrant in another country (Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe or north Korea for example)

Walt Disneys Multi-plane Camera

so whats all this lytro then?

This is a camera that does not focus. That is, it has no focusing element. It's focus range however is actually rather good (1m-25m or so) ... but how can that be?

They made an entirely different type of sensor, thats how. It catches light from every possible direction (or every focus distance) at the same time. Then with their software you can choose where you want the focus to be. Then share the photo on facebook so your friends can change the focus too.

All amazing, new and damn scifi.
But I foresee some issues.
first, the camera itself has very few features. great for the general user but for those that like to change exposure times and aperture, it's a bit restricting.
second, the software doesn't really allow any retouching. so if your photo is over or under exposed, you're stuck. unless you want it as a 1080p still (1080p is just over 1MP, half that of my old phone)

Looking forward to it's release but I'll wait for it's great grandson before I would get one (or until someone hacks the sensor out of it and writes some video code for it :P
