Description
UPDATE: There's yet another easy way to improve the accuracy of DoF. Here's my new tutorial:

I often get inquiries about how I set up my Depth of Field effects. Here is a quick tutorial to show you one of my methods.
Summary:
Turn off "Use Limits" for the camera's Focal Point Scale parameter, then set it to 1000% or as needed. When adjusting the Focal Distance, wherever the green/red cross-hairs touch is where the render will be most sharp. Use the Perspective preview when making adjustments.

Oh Thank you.
The Tiny DOF point was literally driving me crazy. Didn't know you can change that.

I posted a script for Studio many moons ago that sets focal distance with exact precision. No faffing about with the crosshairs in the GUI trying to eyeball it. See the thread over at daz3d.com if you're interested: www.daz3d.com/forums/viewthrea…

Using a null as a target is a great idea, especially when it comes to animations. What I never understood is why DAZ doesn’t already have an automatic method of calculating this by letting you click a point, or a way to track that point without altering the camera direction.

There are lots of things it would be awesome if they added...
