Best Aquarium Camera EVER!

I read about this camera last year, but like everyone else that read about it, I said "I will believe it when I see it.".. well, here it is, and WOW, I was more than surprised by the quality! Beat all my expectations.

I heard something about this camera. it is going to change photography as we know it. What it does it take a record of the entire field of vision, and then it is possible for the information to be manipulated to focus on any depth within the field. Basically it takes a picture in 3D in a way. The digital information can be interpreted in ways no other camera can. Now that I see the pictures, it is nothing short of amazing.

Oh my God you have to look at this. I didn't realize it when I was on their website, but with all the sample pics they have up, after they load you can click anywhere on the image and re-focus it to that point.

I just dropped a load in my pants and now I want this camera more than ever. For the first time in my life, I wish I had a Mac just so I could justify buying this right now.

Holy @#$# I just realized you could do that on the reefbuilders page too

LOL, I was clicking like mad on the reef link pics, then I found the website and wore it out too.

LOL, makes me think of the 4G cell phone commercial, so 12 seconds ago, but this is more like so 12 hours ago!!!! LOL, just giving you a hard time.. All PUN intended.

HAHAHAHA.. that was what I was trying to show off.. the "click anywhere to focus".. Isn't that the most amazing thing for aquariums where depth of field is so important.

Why do you wish you had a Mac? You can install OSX on ANY computer, it isn't just for Apple products. Google "hackintosh".

Too complicated. Plus I need an intel processor it looks like. By the time I get the camera (May-June) they'll have the windows interface done. In the meantime I can d/l them using my co-worker's mac and fiddle with them online after that

Now I just have to convince the wife that we really need this. My plan is to get the kids to see the clickable pictures and then they will really want it, and will probably throw in their money bwahaha
