Quick Tip: Depth of field with 3DS Max and V-ray Background Knowledge Depth of Field (also known as DOF) is the effect of your foreground being in focus, while your background is blurred (or out of focus) or vice versa (the other way around). Before we begin with the tutorial however, we need to talk a little about some of the VrayPhysicalCamera properties and how they relate to a real camera : So as you can see, the VrayPhysicalCamera is identical to a real camera in a lot of ways. Step 1 Before we begin, we need to make sure that we change our renderer to V-ray. Step 2 In order to test the DOF we need to out together a test scene. Step 3 Next, click on the Cameras button in the Create panel, click the Standard roll-down menu, click V-ray, and then create a VrayPhysicalCamera. Step 4 Next we are going to go in and change the settings on our camera. Change the Focus Distance value until the blue grids in the top viewport are in the section you want to focus on. TIP : Changing the Subdivs will make the depth of field effect smoother. Step 5
