  Sharper Pixel Filters

 


The default filter for RenderMan-compatible renderers is a gaussian with a support of 2 pixel widths, which is somewhat blurry.  For a sharper image try a mitchell or lanczos filter with the recommended width of 4 or 6 respectively.  If your user interface doesn’t provide a way to select the pixel filter, it can be set with the following RIB statements:

PixelFilter "mitchell" 4 4

or

PixelFilter "lanczos" 6 6
