Focus distance not working

[cathor]

Hi,

Might be doing it wrong but i am unable to adjust the camera fucus distance through the parameter in the camera object. Dof is enabled in the camera tag only, not through render settings. No matter the distance set or object assigned to focus object slot, the focus is always at the same spot. However, if i enable dof in the render settings and set the dof override the focus distance is adjustable through the distance parameter in render settings.

Seems almost like the focus distance in the camera tag is locked to 100 cm (default value) in render settings) even if dof override is not enabled and distance should be controlled through the camera.

TIA

Do you use free camera or camera with a target?

It works fine. You have to control the camera settings.

I am using free camera without target tag.
Using the 20160210 build. Still cant get it to work.

I get the same here.

@Berdus, are you talking about adjusting the f-stop value in the camera tag?

ok.
if someone can confirm my method of setting focus is considered "best practice" i will report it as a bug.

@berdus, can you change the "Focus Distance" to 50 and send another screen shot?

ok, I can confirm that this is an issue in the 160210 build. Installed A4.1 and everything works as expected in that release.
