The Lytro Camera Finally Gets Wi-Fi

Thanks to its , the Lytro camera does things no other camera can do, but it also lacks a way to quickly share its "living" photos. That is, until today. With a free firmware upgrade, Lytro owners can activate the Wi-Fi chip that's been dormant in their cameras, which works with a new app arriving Wednesday in the iOS App Store.

Now that the Lytro's wireless is fully armed and operational, users will be able to immediately share their light-field photos — which until now were only accessible once the user connected the camera to a PC or Mac. With the app, users can transfer photos to Lytro.com immediately, and sharing is a couple of taps away.
