Tuning Your Preset
When it comes to tuning your preset you’ll be mostly working with:
@Max Distance
@Focal Length
@Base Aperture
@Extended Aperture
Start with the from 0 and bring something in the foreground into focus
@Max Distance
Next set your to the overall level of depth you want for your scene
@Base Aperture
@Extended Aperture
Check out this video for specific tuning
@Focal Length
~17.13 is the common 70 FOV in many standard games like FPS based on a full frame sensor size
@Base Aperture
For an example if we take 5.6 base and 32 extended we could have a nice natural depth you might be more accustomed to and would be useful when exploring areas where you want a little bit of depth, like an open vista.
Common Apertures
F.stop
Notes
2.4
roughly the aperture of an eye in terms of DoF
2.8
a lot of shallow depth of field good for object close ups
5.6
a common average many lenses and shooting conditions
8
a very natural lens setting, gives you a nice balance between slight depth and a sharper scene
11
From here an above, a great setting for the extended aperture to be set to for open scenes

You should see your scene switch between BLUE on your focus points and RED on things that will be out of focus in debug view.
