> I doubt resolution is a limiting factor LCoS (transmissive ones are lower resolution typically though, but you could build reflective) phase modulators are available in 4k resolution (and maybe even higher)

We’re talking about a specific camera, the lytros, which had a 4MP resolution. I’m not saying there was a limitation in the technology broadly speaking. Just that this camera was not worth it for the time. It’s sacrificed too much for one feature and at $400 it just didn’t sell
