Quick reaction - I'm pretty impressed. I upvoted the add noise feature as working with converted negs that have grain, the boken wipes it out. Also would like to resue the mask with other tools - it should add to masks created elsewhere

I really like it! Lots of great things like the Bokeh feature! Adding Bokeh can make the difference between a so-so picture and 1 that is VERY good, especially shaped Bokeh! Just add more shapes like hearts, stars, dog paws, and maple leaves! These are shapes in the homemade Bokeh filters I created for myself, and they add visual interest! Mitch

Lens blur effect seems to be negated by the AI denoise feature for me, anyone experiencing this?

By negated i mean the "depth map" becomes nonsesical if I apply AI denoise after all the edits including lens blur are done. Subject is lost and the depth maps seems to be almost random.

I am attaching one photo with all of the edits including lens blur and another where ai denoise has been applied to that photo, and nothing else changed. I did not try to come up with a solution yet, if Ill manage to circumvent this, ill reply.

If the Lens blur tool is ran for the first time on an already denoised photo the tool works fine. It means that after AI denoise is applied, LR need to reanalyze the lens blur tool before proceeding. The workaround nou is to completely reset the development and then redo the tool.

First time using it when the distance from the subject to the background wall was only about a metre. I worked very well after a bit if refinement. Well done to the engineers!

Used it for the first time (OS 13.14.1 c), LR 13.1 on a portrait of a boy jumping against a woodsy background. Some odd results around the boys head, possibly smearing of sunlit leaves. See attached close-ups. Let me know if you need to see an unedited file.

You can mask out those areas very easily using the brushes available. Click the 'Refine' button then select either the Focus or the Blur brush. In your case use the Blur brush, adjust the parameters shown below it to your liking and paint over those areas you feel are 'odd'. Only takes a few seconds per image to do that cleanup.

Sadly, it's nigh impossible to match the background's focus level. Currently, Focus is "white" and Blur is "black", with no way to pick "gray" as brush color - so the best you can do with the Amount and Flow dials is set its opacity - but if the background isn't ENTIRELY out of focus, just in a slightly further plane, you'll overblur it when trying to blur the border of the subject.
