Is it better to do effects like DoF in post or directly in Corona with appropriate camera settings? Other than saving render time is there an advantage?
Since rendering CoronaDoF is still kinda slow and DOF in general anyways, we are speaking of a time increase in the range of at least x4 per frame if you're are lucky. Once you go to Animation, a Night job render quickly becomes a week long task.
Using a supersampled zdepth pass with 32-bit float exr's gives you the same result as rendering the image for an eternity with almost invisible artifacts and once you add motion, with completely invisible artifacts, unless you go to a stillframe. With deepEXR support, which corona still lacks, artifacts would be a thing of the past.
AND you can still Refocus, if you didnt pull enough focus in 3dsmax.
Before I sound like billy mais, once we get into refraction you are screwed...
