    Abstract: A light-field camera may have a light-field capture configuration in which the light-field camera captures light-field images, and a conventional capture configuration in which the light-field camera captures conventional images. User input may be received; in response to receipt of the user input, the light-field camera may move from an initial configuration in which the light-field camera is in one of the light-field capture configuration, and the conventional capture configuration, to a selected configuration in which the light-field camera is in the other of the light-field capture configuration, and the conventional capture configuration. The light-field camera may be used to capture a first image in the selected configuration. The light-field camera may have a sensor, a microlens array, an actuator, and a guide mechanism by which the microlens array may be moved relative to the sensor to move the light-field camera into the selected configuration.
