Claim One:
1. In a light-field image capture device having a sensor and a plurality of microlenses, a method for reconstructing a light-field image, the method comprising: in a processor, receiving the light-field image and a depth map containing a first sample depth range for a first sample of the light-field image and a second sample depth range for a second sample of the light-field image; in the processor, generating a first layer image comprising the first sample and a second layer image comprising the second sample; in the processor, processing the first and second layer images by: applying a first image processing algorithm to the first layer image to generate a first processed layer image; and applying a second image processing algorithm to the second layer image to generate a second processed layer image; in the processor, combining the first processed layer image with the second processed layer image to generate a processed light-field image; and on a display device, displaying the processed light-field image.
