So dmn, you are proposing to use region rendering as a way to fake effectively a shift lens, am I correct ?
[REQ] Region rendering
I think maybe just allowing the image borders to be changed relative to the vanishing point is more exactly what I want to do, a tilt shift lenses has its own nuances. I don't really want to mess with adjusting the shift plane on a normal basis. And I'm not sure exactly how much Indigo imitates lens distortion.
A shift lens would be the real world equivalent of what we want to do, to adjust the film plane's location on a plane parallel to the lens in order to control (or prevent) distortion of vertical lines.
The tilt aspect is something that I have not played with at all but certainly could be interesting and useful for very artistic renders.

Here's are examples of tilt shift work:

Since indigo is using a thin lens model there are NO lens distortions using the indigo camera. So to perfectly imitate a shift lens you could either model such a lens in indigo or use region rendering and then apply lens distortions afterwards if you want them.dmn wrote:And I'm not sure exactly how much Indigo imitates lens distortion.
Tilt is a totally different aspect that can NOT be achieved with region rendering. I think it might be possible with minor adjustments to the thin lens model, but I'm not sure. Might be interesting to have it in indigo, but not a widely used must-have, imho.
