im so bamboozled, it’s working on the objects in the viewport but when I look in the renderer, there is no depth of field

[@krzysztofmazurkiewicz5270]

Best and quickest camera tutorial ever ;) Finally someone explained it without any nonsence :D Thanks!

[@tlilmiztli]

2021 - still extremely useful tutorial with no nonsense. Thank you!

[@flufflebunn3514]

The timing of this video is impeccable! Just when I needed it for my final project

[@maspriyou2b]

Hello can you help me I've checked the DOF checklist and there are no changes at render time. Pleasee..

[@MHTutorials3D]

Did you measure the distance from the camera to the object and set the DOF values accordingly ?

[@-expirius-5990]

You should control DOF from "Arnold" tab in your camera settings. It's located in attribute editor. If you turn on "Enable DOF" and change settings "Focus Distance" and "Aperture size" in this tab you will get a result at render.

[@jackturnerfilmmaker4124]

So, when I click on the IPR, it automatically changes the lights. It goes dark. Sky dome is off but area light remains on. Any suggestions to fix this?

[@mamtapatil1892]

it is showing in viewport but not in render view, please tell me the solution

[@mostafizurrahman3005]

autodesk maya 2016 SP6 mental ray rendering problem. i am using light but when am i rendering, rendering screen showing black, please help, give me solution.

[@joostkonemann]

Use the resolution gate instead of the film gate. The film gate will show the maximum renderable area and only if the aspect ratios of the film back and render resolution are the same, the film gate will show you what will be in the render. The resolution gate will always show you what's in the render. The f-stop setting is similar to the effect in real cameras the moment you model in the correct size (centimeter by default in Maya).

[@himanshi869]

kindly explain more. I'M really cofused btw film gate and resolution gate.

[@jjalive10]

thanks for the info. Now I'm even more hungrier for other camera options (especially those last two camera's you said as to be advanced one's). [I suppose aim should work as target, right ?] I'm waiting for that video. Thanks

[@NikhilSharma-hx5ty]

Thank You sir 😃😃😃😃

[@Alexandros_Pan]

Good evening, excellent tutorial, while it kinda works in my viewport it doesn't seem to work with v-ray...any ideas?

[@MHTutorials3D]

Viewport 2.0 ?

[@chompet123]

This is what I've been looking for! Thanks for this

[@saurabhshivamverma2910]

[@mauriciocornejo1442]

hey mike have a question for you. I'm changing the resolution of a rendering on the rendering setting from 72 to 250.....however when I save the rendering image and I opened it in photoshop it is not a 250 resolution image its a 72dpi resolution............am I'm doing something wrong?

[@madnalab3901]

hello, perhaps you can help me out on this one..........when I rendered my images in maya, arnold and set my dpi to 200., I save it. then I open photoshop but in photoshop it says that my images are 72dpi. ANY IDEA WHY IS THAT

[@marialepee]

Thank you! Greetings from Mexico!

[@aviral3464]

Hi was wondering how you can animate the camerica moving with a object say a scene of a ww 2 plane dive bombing a carrier and you went from far to a zooming close up what cameria option do you suggest for a scene like that

[@StereoWorld]

You can use resolution gate for exact representation of what's in the scene

[@milanjoy9560]

Very Helpful☺️ Thanks.!

[@himanshi869]

when to use resolution gate and flim gate? Confused between both

[@yegili]

That was wonderful thank you

[@MHTutorials3D]

Very welcome

[@carlosmiret35]

I'm using maya 2020.1. Why it doesn't show the DOF in the final render (but it shows in the panel)? is it a problem from this verison or I miss enable/disable something or check something?

[@celiadoesanimation]

Hey! I'm having the same problem with Maya 2019, did you find out what the problem was?

[@yiyao7931]

Really helpful. Thanks a lot

[@GurbachanSingh-di4co]

hello Mike... I watch your every video on maya and 3d modelling.... I wanted to ask you a question that does good sketching matters in 3d modelling? As I completed my high school and now I am applying for animation colleges in Canada and the portfolio requirements for almost every of them is good sketching... I am average in sketching... So what should I do????

[@toonietalkanimations1612]

LIFE DRAWING IS KEY, PRACTICE THAT AND YOU WILL BE FINE. ALSO STORYBOARDS ITS HELPFULL SO LEARN SOLID FORM AND PERSPECTIVE. ITS NOT ABOUT HOW APPEALING THE DRAWING IS BUT HOW WELL IT READS AND IS IT EASY TO UNDERSTAND? IM A 3RD YEAR 3D ANIMATION STUDENT.
