Just downloaded the Still.jpg image using lenzfx. Looked great, I probably
want it/need it.
but…
It looks to me like the reflections are rendered incorrectly. It appears that
the depth of field of the reflection is is that of the object it is reflected
on, not the object being reflected. Looks like a major flaw to me, especially
if it happens in a demo image. Otherwise the image looks great, the pen being
the highlight to me.
One more question: I've heard word-of-mouth that Rayman is currently a single
frame only process (any confirmation?), is Lenzfx animatable? I would love to
use the two together and send my rendering times up to lengths I was used to
pre-3ds.
Love your products by the way.
Scott,
Actually, with a real camera, a reflection of an object can be in perfect
focus while the object itself is completely blurred. Remember in the old
movies when some fabulous movie star would be sitting in front of her mirror
and her reflection in the mirror would be focused while the back of her head
would not. What you are actually focusing in on is the light reflected from
the mirror's surface, not from the object causing the reflection.
As far as I know, Rayman is a still image raytracer. LenZFX is very
animatable. The majority of its variables are set via spline envelopes that
can be keyframed.
Watch for more sample images.
