Camera Settings

Camera Mode – Specifies the type of camera to use for rendering. The cameras in V-Ray generally define the rays that are cast into the scene, which essentially is how the scene is projected onto the screen. V-Ray supports several camera types:

Standard Camera – A traditional pinhole camera.
Stereoscopic Camera – Creates two virtual cameras based on the current camera, one for each in a pair of stereoscopic images.
VR Camera (Cubic 6:1) – Six standard cameras are placed on the sides of a box for generating cubic VR output.
VR Stereo Camera (Cube 12:1) – Twelve standard cameras are arranged to generate stereoscopic VR output. Half of the cameras generate the left cubic output, and the other half generates the right cubic output.

 

Exposure Settings

---

Exposure (EV) – Controls the render brightness in exposure value (EV) units. EV ranges correspond to the following lighting environments:

White Balance (K) – Specifies the color temperature in degrees Kelvin that appear white in the render. The following temperature ranges correspond to the following lighting environments.

 

Effects

---

This rollout is only accessible when the Camera Mode is set to Standard Camera.

Defocus – Controls the strength of the defocus (bokeh) effect. Objects farther away from the Focus Distance will appear blurry.

Focus Distance – Specifies the distance from the camera that objects will be in sharp focus. Note that Focus Distance is synchronized with Revit's project units. 

Optical Vignetting – Controls the strength of the vignetting effect which gradually darkens the edges of the render.
