I'm very curious how the light field photo accomplishes the 3d effect if we're taking the photo from one point.

@joeyzhao123 The camera is taken at only "one" position, but recall that a lightfield holds information for light traveling through an entire volume in the camera. This volume contains multiple viewpoints. This is what provides the raw data necessary for a 3D effect.
