Someone created a working virtual film camera inside the 3D rendering software Blender.
It is an incredible and complex project that took Purich months of work. He built a virtual camera that behaves like a film camera and captures “real” fake photos using simulated light rays that pass through a virtual lens that Purich designed based on real-world optics.
“Since I knew it should technically be possible given the unbiased nature of cycles’ path tracing, my motivation/inspiration was mostly to see if it would be viable and if I could make it look decent. Once I realized that it was, I started adding extra bits and challenging myself to see if I could emulate a sort of classic film look.
Blender’s Cycles rendering engine approximates how light behaves in the physical world. The more samples that a user takes, the better the results. However, extra geometry and complexity result in significantly more demanding rendering loads.
