Viewpoint Laboratories partners with Cloud Dome Inc. to launch Nimbus Cloud Dome for Lytro camera

Feb. 5, 2013 - PRLog -- Viewpoint Laboratories' Nimbus Cloud Dome for the Lytro Light Field camera provides the only commercially available solution for attaching a light diffuser dome to this unique camera. High-strength rare-earth magnets integrated into the dome allow it to magnetically attach to the built-in magnet array on the camera nose. The Nimbus Cloud Dome for the Lytro camera follows the 2012 launch of Viewpoint Laboratories’ 37 mm Filter Adapter for the same camera, and is now available on Amazon as well as Viewpoint Laboratories’ Amazon webstore http://viewpointlaboratories.hostedbyamazon.com.

“This product enables the user to optimize the illumination for Lytro close-up photography,” said Gilbert D. Feke, Ph.D., President of Viewpoint Laboratories, LLC. “Like a miniature photography studio, this product is small and portable and works very well on location to eliminate harsh shadows and strong specular highlights, helping to create evenly lit shots. Even in full sun, the Nimbus Cloud Dome for the Lytro camera softens the light for a great light-field photo.”

“We are excited to work with Viewpoint Laboratories to access the Lytro photography market, especially because this new Nimbus Cloud Dome product for the Lytro camera is compatible with other pre-existing Cloud Dome products, such as the Nimbus Dome Photography Base,” said Cindy Lichfield, President of Cloud Dome, Inc., and inventor of cloud dome technology.
