camera lens blur after effects cs5 download

Foreground elements appear sharp but with a blurry halo since the entire 'background' is being blurred, creating a blurred ghost of the foreground element. The 'new' Camera Lens Blur is acting like the Compound Blur effect. As a test I installed the demo of Frishluft's Lenscare plugins, and after inverting the depth buffer in the plugin I got a good result. I saved the old Lens Blur effect as a preset out of a CS5 project and am, fortunately, still able to use that approach in CS6 since the 'improved' version of the plugin looks pretty crummy (I skipped AE CS5.5). There's a nasty halo visible around the foreground particle in the upper left in the CS6 Camera Lens Blur version. The images are composited from 16-bit PNGs rendered out of Cinema 4D. Here's an image showing the depth map and how the three plugins render it: The old Camera Lens blur does not exhibit this behavior, nor the Frischluft Depth of Field plugin. Foreground elements that should be sharp render sharp, but with a blurry halo around them. The Camera Lens Blur effect that came with AE CS 5.5 and CS 6 doesn't look nearly as good as the old Lens Blur effect that came with CS 5 it's pretty much unusable for my purposes.
