Aluviel Nakamura Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Hello all,I dont know where to place this question except in the technical dep. of the forums. I need a really good step by step tutorial on how to get that 3-d look using DOF when taking photos.I get bits here and there about seting the enviroment and playing with graphics etc. If there is a step by step tutorial out there could someone give a link or paste in the propper settings? Many thanks Luvi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orca Flotta Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 AFAIK DOF only works in photos when you stay on the default resolution. So say my res is 1920x1030 but for photos I usually up it to 5760x3090. And swooosh, the DOF doesn't show anymore. :smileysurprised::smileysad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOF works also in high resolution snapshots. The trick to do is that you need increase the DOF quite a lot so that it will show also in the high res snapshot. It's a bit "try and see" method as we cannot see the high res image on the viewer window. But it does work. By the way, SL viewer is a bit cumbersome to use with DOF as all the DOF adjustments are in the debug settings only. In Firestorm there is that great "Phototools" window where one can adjust various DOF settings (and many other things too) on the fly. There are many videos on youtube how to use the Firestorm Phototools. Here's one tutorial of DOF and glow: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
