It is possible to use a custom-drawn lens in addition to the generate-able ones. It is a good complement to ‘Depth of Field’ and offers some extra functionality. ‘Out of Focus’ is a fast Version that creates a blur with a constant radius over the complete image. It uses a depth buffer for its calculations. With Lenscare plugin depth of field, effects can be generated fast as a post-process. In computer graphics, dof is usually generated using ray tracing techniques which increase rendering times considerably. It is heavily used in photography and film as a style element. There are two main features that allow us to accomplish these effects.ĭepth of field effects (dof) happens in all real optical devices to a certain extent. The purpose of Lenscare is to provide realistic camera-like out-of-focus and depth-of-field blurs. If you need to add some spectacular lens work to your image editing workflow, Lenscare’s results are unequaled. Maybe nobody cares.Įither way, the world needs more choice in this regard.Give your footage breathtakingly realistic depth of field and focus effectsįrischluft Lenscare for Photoshop has physically-based algorithms blur pixels based on their depth value, so you can add high-quality camera blurs to your 3D renders in 2D post-processing without the extensive render times you’d experience in your 3D app. It can't be the hardest thing out there, though.

I imagine that writing a code for an "in-post DOF plugin" is probably not the simplest of tasks.
I do wonder, though, why aren't there more plugins out there that can do great post DOF effects?Īre people already satisfied with using either Nuke's own DOF or Frischluft within After Effects?ĭo people render with native DOF enabled straight out of the 3D app and don't bother with DOF post at all? And just like Jim said he's not getting much help from BlackMagic as the OFX plugin devs have to work around Resolve/Fusion not the other way around. He said he would let me know when it works again but I have not heard from him since (mid-summer ish). At the time he saw it as a massive task and couldn't give any estimate as to when it might be fixed. I have also talked to Frischluft's dev and he's trying to make it work in Resolve (Fusion page). So far I've tried Sapphire's Depth of Field tools but had dodgy results (half transparent edges where the image is in focus). I've been meaning to make a switch to Resolve myself but the lack of decent tools to achieve good quality DOF effects in post is still a huge problem, I find. As lovely and robust as its Zdefocus node is, I can not justify paying the price of the app (as I use it for CG comping only no VFX work). I'm kinda surprised how hard it has been to see much mention of FL DoF in the Resolve or Fusion forums, but maybe I'm just not looking in the right place. I will continue to test things but I thought I'd reach out because maybe some of you Resolve/Fusion pros could fix me up right quick, or just let me know things are bugged out right now and these plugins don't work at all.
I've tried changing the Memory and GPU settings in various combinations (CUDA/OpenCL and manually isolating each GPU) but have yet to come up with something that works. So it seems to me like the plugins are installed correctly, Resolve is definitely seeing them and it works in the Color mode but just hard crashes in the Fusion Comp which is where I intend to do most of my work.
I have had some crashing trying this too but it's been less consistent and I haven't been able to nail down exactly what might be causing this. Here's where it gets weird to me, if I go to the Color panel and add the FL OoF node I can actually get it to work, it blurs my image just fine. If I try to set up the node network in the Fusion Comp I can connect the Loader image to the FL OoF node but the minute I tweak any of the settings (like the radius) it instantly crashes. In testing the FL DoF/Out of Focus OFX plugins in Resolve 16 Beta I'm getting some odd behavior.
#FRUITSCHULFT LENSCARE LICENSE#
As far as I can tell, I can't test OFX plugins in Fusion at all without purchasing a Fusion Studio license (which I would consider but I'd have to know my plugins work first). Trouble is I'm not having any luck getting them to work properly. I'd like to use OFX versions of my favorite plugins like Frischluft Lenscare and RSMB in Resolve/Fusion if they're all working correctly. Trying to make the jump to Resolve/Fusion from AFX for 3D compositing and I'm running into some roadblocks and was hoping you guys might be able to help me out.įusion seems extremely competent but it seems to me like it's missing some key plugins/effects like a good post depth of field / glow effect etc that I tend to rely on fairly regularly.
