That's what I thought. I didn't think about the information added to the
image, just plainly that Pov focal blur is calculated along with each
pixel, while the post-procces one does it to the image as a whole,
according to the depth of each pixel (that's how i guess it probably
works). Because of this, Pov takes into account real "out-of-focus"
effects, it doesn't just blur the already-raytraced image.
