Artifacts in DOF - Mental Ray render
Any ideas of what to change?
I'm using FG and 10000 rays, but doesn't seem to make a diff how many I use.

Someone had a good idea, maybe this will help
"Try upping the Final Gather rays to 500-1000 maybe. If that doesn't work , increase it to 2000. But it might be that the actual model is too small, or too large. Since MR uses actual Model size and size characteristics for FG and Photon emission calculations, if your model is longer then 20 units or smaller then 3 or 4, then you should scale it to be between those two values."

Now the problem seems to be worse than better. The first image in this thread used 10000 rays for FG, this image uses 50000 rays. I wonder if the amount of rays is actually hurting me here?
I've attached two more pics. One with 50K FG rays and one with 100 FG rays. I don't think it's the FG doing this or maybe I have another setting wrong.

) and you cna tweak it till it looks perfect. I'd do that rather than mess with the render settings.

I'm not used to rendering in passes (I know I should become familiar with it so why not now?) I looked it up and see that I have several choices but not Depth. How do I render a depth pass?
