This is actually pretty cool... If it works.

It generally worked pretty well. It has its limitations, sure, but still neat tech.But if I remember correctly, the resulting images from the first camera were quite low-res, and you never got an actual JPG out of it. Only a file that could be viewed or manipulated by the company's proprietary software. That may've changed since I last checked, but that certainly didn't help it gain any steam in the early days.

Is lens interchangeable...say, (hypothetically) there would be an accident, lens is damaged, will there be a way to replace it, while avoiding buying new Lytro Illum?
