It sounds like coming from the future. Taking snapshot and refocusing on your subject, or the background, afterwards. It is possible and affordable with this new camera. OK, It's just a fun gadget and has nothing to do with the art of photography, but I just wanted to show you. Have a look at the gallery where you can refocus all images taken by the Lytro. It's fun, but can it ever be usefull? I guess only when the focalpoint is also zoomable afterwards, and when the reaction time is really only a splitsecond. IT looks a bit premature now, but I'd love to try it. http://www.lytro.com Trying out the Lytro light field camera (Photo credit: John Biehler) Lytro Powered Eric Cheng (Photo credit: Thomas Hawk)     examples contest      

Well, I dreamed about this the last twenty years. I sold Leicas when I worked in a professional camera-shop, I tried Leicas because of that, as much as I wanted and I even went to Leica Germany, as part of my 'education' as a salesman 20 years ago. But I never saw myself as a Leica-man. And now, finally, I have my own Leica rangefinder. I thought about it the last two years, and now it's here, and I feel totally rejuvenated, wanting to go out and be a reporter/streetphotographer all the time. Finally back to mastering your focuspoint, this viewfinder is breathtaking beautiful to look through. And Lightroom is so happy with it's DNG's. The lens I bought with it  (35/2.0 asph) is the best I ever had... Later on you'll see the results in this blog and in your daily newspaper, I'm sure. http://en.leica-camera.com/home/

I will be selling my rare Yasuhara T981  rangefinder camera with 50/2.8 and original box and papers. Body with the great serialnumber 04450, so this was one of the very last ever made! What should I be asking for such a rare camera, or should I just put it on ebay? Or would somebody trade it for a Leica M9 ...
