Problem with Z-depth with Lens Blur

#1

Hi guys,

I did a simple test to create DOF in AE with Lens blure filter. As showing in my image, I’d like to do a blurry foreground fading to a clear background but I got a very weird look for the FG object. The object’s edge overlapping the next one is OK , while the intersection with the sky(BG) is not blurred. Could anyone please give some hint or solution for it? Thanks in advance! Below is my test AE scene file.

hm…the same thing as on your pic. Im tried to use Frischlufts depth of field plugin instead and it works good…strange lens blur

Looks like it’s getting cut out by the alpha - are you blurring the alpha as well?
