How subject preservation works

The prompt protects the face, identity, hair, glasses, jewelry, clothing, hands and transparent details. It asks the model to blur the scene according to depth rather than applying a flat blur over everything.

Related photography tools

Does it blur only the background?

Yes. The subject and important foreground details are explicitly protected.

Which lens look is best for portraits?

85mm with Medium blur is the recommended starting point.

Will hair edges stay sharp?

The workflow is instructed to preserve loose hair strands and fine edges.

Does it replace the background?

No. It keeps the original scene and changes depth of field only.

Can I use it for products?

Yes. It works well when the product is clearly separated from the background.

Is the effect identical to a real lens?

It is an AI simulation and may differ from optical depth of field in complex scenes.
