Thanks for the answer! Split diopter is super cool, but not exactly what i am looking for.

Essentially, i want to have an object (the window) totally exluded from the DOF. But i guess thats not possible.

Hi!

I want to render a scene looking through a window. The camera should focus the window so you can see for example waterdrops on it. But at the same time it should focus on an object outside, while having DOF for the other objects outside, for example trees.

Hi!

I was wondering what is better when using the universal light. have a bright color/tint + low power value, or dark color + high value?
always confused since i think i remember the default color in cinema4d was white, but in houdini the default is pretty dark.

Thanks!

Is there any way to change that limitation? Or is it just a physical thing?
I have so many cases where i'd like to have way stronger DOF.

Is there already an ETA for Houdini 21 compatibility?

Thanks a lot for the great update!

Is it me or won't the lights get updated in the ipr when switching them off?

Unfortunately i don't have this folder nor the file.

They look like this:
