I have watched a lot of KZbin channels make Daz tutorials .. but honestly you are in another level .. you are really the best in that ❤

[@RaukoDaz3D]

Oh wow ! Thanks for that - really appreciate it!

[@obviousalias9506]

Always glad to see a new video from you, Rauko! Thank you!

[@RaukoDaz3D]

You're welcome - thanks for watching!

Good video Rauko! I always enjoy your content and even though I have real life photography experience I always learn something new. I also do not fool with the advanced lens settings as I find they are basically useless.

You can keep me right in case I've got anything technically wrong in this video!! 😀😃🙂

Daz learners: please bookmark/subscribe to Rauko's channel! This channel is proof that even more experienced Daz users can still learn new things and/or brush up on their skills. This video just happened to come up in "recommended" videos in KZbin one day, and despite it being seemingly "basic" I still watched it. I TOTALLY forgot about the fact that you can change the camera local dimensions, as you mention towards the end. Thanks for all of your tips!

Thanks buddy - appreciate the shout out ... Glad to help even old timers like yourself .. 😀

Another great video!. I love that you have everything already set up so not a lot of delays fumbling trying to find things. You get in and get out without a lot of waste. On subject of depth of field, you probably know this, but there is a red line that is the actual point of sharpest focus. I usually use either the top view or perspective view to try to put that focus point right on the subject's eyes. I just wish it was a bit longer which would make it easier to see. Although there is a way to manually make the line longer it would be great if Daz would add that adjustment to a future update.

[@johnbrown1313]

BTW, here's my note on how to make that focus point line easier to see. Easier Depth of Field • Select Camera > Display > Focal Point Scale • Remove Limits in Parameters • Set Value to 1000% • Set Nudge to 1.0%

[@RaukoDaz3D]

Yeah, don't like messing about .. get in .. do the business .. get out .. 😀 I usually look side on and use the green line that points up as my reference for the best focal center point .. but .. it also depends on what you want going on behind or in front of the model. Sometimes you might want more / less out-of-focus blur behind in-front of the model and the f/stop doesn't always cut it. So the best focal point isn't always the best place to put it .. ideally, yes .. but I wouldn't say it's a "always do" situation

[@johnbrown1313]

@@RaukoDaz3D Good point. I literally just saw this and haven't tried it, but SecondCircle posted a DOF tutorial saying that you can click the the visibility of the two DOF plains to turn them solid white which makes it really easy to see the focus area. You put the front plain just in front of the area you want sharpest, then you can turn in off to see the far point. I want to try that as sometimes I find it difficult getting the perspective camera lined up correctly to see the DOF.

Thanks for uploading this, it's really helpful as are a lot of your tutorials.

[@RaukoDaz3D]

Hey, you're welcome - thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed!

[@mahirbird]

Thanks for these details about the camera. Many of them were unknown to me. I'm hoping to see more tutorials.

[@RaukoDaz3D]

You're welcome! More coming soon!

@@RaukoDaz3D Any chance on a d-force/simulation tutorial?

[@RaukoDaz3D]

@@user-os7ec4dm8x I'll be revisiting dforce soon .. but there's a few on the channel already .. is there anything in particular you're struggling with?

[@user-os7ec4dm8x]

No, I get the basics ok, just can be fiddly messing around with it, I'll check out your vids, cheers.@@RaukoDaz3D

[@michelvoillery]

Thanks for the video Rauko, It really makes a difference for us just starting the Daz adventure! Can I ask you how you have made the backdrop in the scene? Is it a big cloth simulation you have made, or do you have some custom backgrounds for backdrops?

[@RaukoDaz3D]

In this scene I used a background from the BOSS lighting setup. You can get it on the Daz store (tinyurl.com/2eapmvs7 ). However, I might do a video on how you can create your own or similar

Thank you so much! @@RaukoDaz3D
