Depth Of Field

Use Depth Of Field to create a blur that is applied to out-of-focus points of light to simulate a shallow focus.

You can access the Depth Of Field effect in the following ways:

- As a Batch node. This node accepts a front clip, Z-depth clip, and a matte clip, and outputs a result and output matte clip. The output matte clip can have a different level of depth of field than the result clip.
- From the Desktop. Select Flame FX then click Depth Of Field. You can select Front/ZDepth or Front/ZDepth/Matte from the Input Mode box.
