Hello there, im new to octane and here i have this probem when i import any obj file into octane standalone (screenshot attached)
as you can i see i get blurry view of my obj file and at first i have to zoom alot until i can even see it
whats the problem ?
thanks

Select the auto focus picker and and click on your object.
You could also go into the camera settings and turn your aperture to 0.
Should fix it.

Hi,
also double check your scale export setting, Octane works in meters. You can change the scale property of any geometry node in any time by clicking on the proper icon in the node inspector (edit geometry settings), or globally in the Octane / Preferences / Import
