It's a pretty neat piece of technology, but I feel like I can only learn photography and use my equipment the right way if it'll let me make mistakes. These new technologies add options to correct the mistake afterwards, which is great, but also makes me a lazy photographer. Why should I care about composing, lighting and focus if I can edit it the way I like from the comports of my home?
The learning experience for me is one of the charming aspects about the hobby. Making mistakes is a critical part of that experience.

It's fine if you want F2 DOF on all your photos. Look at the examples, none of them have a large DOF.
It's also a bit misleading. Click the seals and try to get the house in the background in focus - can't be done.
Now, if I were a govt. agency, I might want some of these so I could use the variable focus to see what's going on in the background, but I see it as a limited feature gimmick.
