That`s the much easier think! (remember, before render You must know which object or part of scene will be in DoF...so this determinate range of CLIP FRONT and CLIP BACK. The most smaller range then better effect in DoF PRO. If object is small try keep range FRONT/BACK as smaller is possible, before object FRONT and behind object BACK parameter)
Here, in attachment range is 5 meters , and effect in DoF PRO will be between 0 and 5 m. Of course for small object in scene or closeups, You need smaller, for example small object on the table FRONT will be 0 m and BACK 1 m, etc. Important is to know what effect You want....and this need small training :D

btw DoF PRO from first view, looks easy, but to receive really good effect, this software NEED REALLY TRAINING. :idea:
