3D Artist Wanderson M. Pimenta showcased a custom tool for Blender – an add-on that allows for performing real-time autofocus.
The add-on automatically adjusts the camera's focus based on what's in the center of the view. The tool provides realistic depth-of-field effects without manual adjustments. Apart from the main function, the add-on features focus transition time, focus offset, five keyframe controls, baking focus distance, and more.
The workflow when using the tool includes the following steps: enabling autofocus, adjusting focus transition time, using focus offset if needed, setting keyframes for focus offset if you need different offsets at different times, setting the DOF settings, baking the focus distance, and rendering.
Also, Wanderson M. Pimenta shared an add-on for generating realistic camera movements, the Blender camera controller:
