tilt-shift effects
The tilt-shift effect is a part of the professional photographer’s arsenal. Whether you are a portrait or landscape photographer, Bokeh gives you the same effect without cumbersome lens changes. So, you can focus on capturing the best photograph at the moment and make creative focus decisions after the shot has been taken.
Bokeh provides a flexible radial sweet spot the can be quickly moved, resized, rotated, and feathered to control focus and vignetting. This provides all the power of tilt-shift lenses without the hassle or expense.
