Re: [Nuke-users] Zdefocus not 100% sharp
There is the blurred inside knob which blurres the sharp area too to make the transition smoother to the blurred/defocused areas ... I think it defaults to be switched on.

Re: [Nuke-users] Zdefocus
ZDefocus's focal point is not animatable, but the focal plane is, which can achieve the same result (the focal point is just used to control where in the viewer to sample the depth to populate the focal plane knob). If you're trying to expression link the focal point to a tracker (for example), you can do this by using an expression like this in the focal plane knob: [sample this depth.Z Tracker1.tracks.1.track_x Tracker1.tracks.1.track_y] This samples the depth.Z channel at the location of Tracker1's track 1. I hope that helps! Sam On 12/09/2014 20:49, Danimator wrote: Does anyone have info on how to do a follow focus with ZDefocus?

Re: [Nuke-users] Zdefocus
You can still ctrl+drag say a translate knob from a transform node into the focal point knob. It'll link it with an expression and you could put your expression or animation in the translate knob.

[Nuke-users] ZDefocus driven by Axis
Hello All,
I am trying to setup a script that would let you drive the ZDefocus knob
focal length (C) with an axis node. The issue that I am running into is
that this value only updates when the users moves the focal point widget.
But the focal point can not be driven with a curve. To get around this I
am using a camera and axis plugged into a Reconcile3D node. Then that XY is
plugged into a CurveTool with its area set to 1 pixel by 1 pixel which I
then generate the average intensities of that tracked pixel to get me a
curve which I can plug into focal length (C). Is there anyway to cut the
CurveTool out of this, so that I don't have to generate keys every time I
move the axis? Maybe using callbacks? Thank you.

RE: [Nuke-users] ZDefocus buggy?
We just had similar issue, with artifacts in random frames using ZDefocus. Very hard to debug. In our case the artifacts were triggered by large depth differences and appeared in same place. Reducing depth difference in these places removed artifacts completely. Hope it helps.

Also the comp gets highly unstable and crashes by only clicking on the ZDefocus node. In both cases the depth pass was rendered with sitoa to EXR with the depth info stored in Alpha but I doubt thats part of the issue since I checked the data and its all normal (no broken pixels or unusual values). The thing is, I can get rid of the issue by either disable automatic layer spacing or shuffle the depthpass into another channel then depth? But that only helps for one frame and it then will certainly appaers on a another random frame. At least I can somehow fix it but its still pretty annoying.

Re: [Nuke-users] ZDefocus buggy?
Any chance there are NANs in the renders? Mental Ray?

Re: [Nuke-users] ZDefocus buggy?
I have had this with an earlier version of ZDefocus but not recently. Checking for NaNs is definitely a good idea. On 05/02/14 15:27, Ryan O'Phelan wrote: Any chance there are NANs in the renders?

Re: [Nuke-users] zDefocus
yes, I have. especially the gamma option will screw up your image in a way that may cause NANs. bit m in the bum big time on a recent show. it's a great new node though, I just hope the polish it a bit to avoid these things On 23/04/13 11:17, Howard Jones wrote: Has anyone noticed that the zDefocus adds noise into the blacks? If you view via HSV and/or have a bounding box - you should see noise plus streaks outside of the bounding box. They are very low values but make it into the final image. Screen shot attached - all of this is black in source footage up to the zDefocus Howard ___ Nuke-users mailing list Nuke-users@support.thefoundry.co.uk, http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-users ___ Nuke-users mailing list Nuke-users@support.thefoundry.co.uk, http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-users
