Hi Ahmet,

is there any chance that the Octane SDK will offer DOF for panorama camera option anytime soon? Its exclusion is a significant limitation, and as VR work becomes more commonplace, we're going to need this ability more and more. Post processes don't offer the quality required, and have their own issues and limitations.

Hi,

I think it's already here in sdk >> viewtopic.php?f=33&t=59760

"New DOF options and DOF support for the panoramic camera
To allow different bokeh shapes than just circles, we added these new options to the depth of field settings of the thin lens camera node:

Bokeh side count: Defines the number of sides of the bokeh shape, which is usually the number of blades of the diaphragm in a camera.
Bokeh rotation: Defines the orientation of the bokeh shape.
Bokeh roundedness: Defines how round the bokeh shape sides should be rendered."
