摘要
The paper discusses the light efficiency and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of light field imaging systems in comparison to classical 2D imaging, which necessitates the definition of focal length and f-number. A comparison framework between 2D imaging and arbitrary light field imaging systems is developed and exemplified for the kaleidoscopic and the afocal light field imaging architectures. Since the f-number, in addition to the light efficiency of the system, is conceptually linked to the depth-of-field, an appropriate depth-of-field interpretation for light field systems is discussed as well.
