hows it going,
I've been kind of confused on which of the two(2d and 3d) blur give me better results. I've been rendering my shots occasionally with one of the two but I still can't figure out which one i like better as far as realism and aesthetic pleasure. you guys have any personal preferences? like which one do you guys tend to choose without really thinking about it anymore cause you know it works out best for you. and I dont really care about render times.
thanks,
