I posted a script for DAZ Studio a while back to set depth of field focal distance with extreme accuracy. It can be found at goo.gl/J5PHcl . Using perspective view to adjust the f/Stop to get an estimate of how much in front of and behind will be in focus is still relevant. But the script makes the actual focal distance exact.

I just RIGHT NOW figured out why sometimes DOF looks nice, and other times (most of the time) I absolutely hate it. Lol.
It's the feet!!!

True, if you are using a flat background DoF isn't so great, there are ways around it, but the simplest fix is to not film the feet and have a slightly upward camera angle

I like when you can see the transition from in and out of focus. It's much more believable than simply a focused character in front of a blurry background with no interaction between them.

DOF is easy-ish to set up, but damn it has overhead on the render time. It can be worth it - I agree it can add a lot.

I've tried with and without DoF, render times are just a little longer. As long as your focus item is good and clear, you can stop the render and fix any noise with Photoshop

I think I was either setting it up wrong or blaming DOF for issues with my old video card. I've tried a few since - ahem - refreshing my memory of how DOF works, thanks to your tutorial, and the render times haven't been bad at all.
Thanks for getting me back on the DOF train.

PERFECT! I've wanted to experiment with DoF, but couldn't figure it out. The DAZ forums were of no help. Thank you so much.
