1. A method for processing a compressed image derived from a raw image projected from light field data acquired through a microlens array, the method comprising: retrieving a compressed image derived from a raw image projected from light field data, wherein the compressed image comprises a plurality of retiled pixel clusters; and at a processor, retiling the compressed image to generate an image comprising a plurality of pixel clusters, each of which comprises a pixel from each of the retiled pixel clusters; wherein each of the pixel clusters in the generated image encodes a portion of the light field data corresponding to a microlens of the microlens array.
