SLG 1.7beta1 focus test

Apparently, the exporter (I think) screws up the focal point if the zoom is LOWER than default (35 mm), but behaves ok if equal or greater.

This is using LuxRender or LuxRay in conjunction with Blender and making use of a graphics card to accelerate things?

@gyrocam

Yes. It's a very basic prototype for LuxRays. Just a mere demo for this technology, but a few people already use it as a render engine.

what kind of graphics card do i need? :)

[agent47crows]

@gyrocam

One that's OpenCL and/or CUDA compliant.

I think the GeForce 6 series and up work great. Tested it on an nvidia 8800 GTS and an ATI Sapphire HD 4350 or something.

Thanks. Well, neither have I, until I had to use some precise measurement tool inside.

[stefitms]

You might also want to go to videocopilot(dot)net , go to "On the Blog" and find "BLOG SHOW: The Big Show-bowski". There the man shows some awesome DoF footage and also how he filmed it(w/ a real camera).
