Not sure if this has been posted before, I did do a quick search and found nothing. Unless I'm doing something wrong, it seems Octane's DOF has a glaring issue: Reflected DOF does not render correctly.

Focus Point = Clockface
Clockface in focus but reflections are blurred

Focus Point = Backdrop
Clockface blurred but reflections over clockface are in focus!
