Follow focus?

Hi,

first of all abstrax, many thanks for your great job.

I've got a question about camera export from c4d to octane.

Is it possible to animate focal depth?

I mean is there any chance to control camera focus in animation or it's a fixed setting?

Yes, that's possible, although it's a bit hidden: Enable the export of focal depth and set the focal depth value to 0. After that the focal depth of the C4D camera object is used, which can be animated. The next version will have a more obvious tick box for this.

Cheers,
Marcus
