Bokeh example
Demonstrated with a mannequin in Rolin's 3D virtual studio.

What it is

Background lights turn into soft round orbs.

When to use it

Romance, night scenes, festivities, dreaminess.

When not to

Flat daytime backgrounds without point lights.

Often confused with

  • Shallow focus

    Shallow focus is the blur; bokeh is the light orbs in it.

Common generation mistakes

  • SymptomNo orbs in the background.

    FixState background lights dissolve into large soft round bokeh.

Combinations Rolin checks

  • Auto-fixed

    Shallow focus or bokeh needs a wide aperture (f/2.8 or wider)

    Rolin will: set aperture to f/2.8
