Yes, that's definitely one of my favorite features, too!  Within the AE lens blur, though, I assume that you have the ability to set a luminence value (0-255 in 8-bit) that drives your focal plane, correct?  With this in mind, could one simply rig an expression using a Null and the sampleImage feature to do this? 

I know this involves more steps, but it accomplishes the general idea, correct?

I'd love to hear any other thoughts comparing the two.

Thanks!

the lens blur in CS55 looks nice and is not dead slow anymore.

the one thing that i really like about frischluft is the ability to set your point of focus (based on your depth pass) by clicking in your comp

Hi Everyone,

I plan on purchasing CS6 in the next couple of weeks, and am currently running CS5.  When I'm at work, my lens blur of choice is the Frischluft suite, but I wanted to know if I should purchase it for personal projects if the revamped lens blur in CS5.5+ worked at the same level.

I would love to hear your insights.

Thank you!
