It seems to me something causing now this whte noise in the bokeh

Did you try previous version on the same scene?

[JDE]

No it was there actually , just checked, sorry for that.
Supposed to be a wrong HDRI or settings.

Hi Karba. Is it possible to include something like triplanar map https://docs.chaosgroup.com/display/...ayTriplanarTex

I will check how it works in VRay. As I understand, it doesn't require any mapping at all?

It 's just help you to avoid problems in seams of two projection of uvw map on more complicated object than box, sphere, cylinder http://viscorbel.com/vraytriplanartex-awesome/

Much love from me for the DOF options!!!
I swear, you are so fast! O_O

Any word on the DOF mapping for custom shapes and fallofs?

Now... I know you're a very well-educated person and seem to like a challenge, Andrey... What would it take you to simulate sagittal astigmatism of a lens?

I'm attaching a couple of pictures:
1) My simple DOF light render as-is now with 12 aperture blades - looking nice!
2) What is sagittal astigmatism.
3) A real-world example from a soviet lens Helios-40 (85mm f/1.5) - something from your homeland (and something I recently invested ~$400 in!).

I'm interested in your thoughts!

I can't cover all cases. I had to develop something suitable for most cases.

As far as I'm concerned, it's a box mapping with a blend option.
The blend amount is really interesting ... I'd love to have this in Fstorm.
