Yes, that's the beauty of it, it works with anything available in POV-Ray. And
you have the choice of using radiosity and/or standard lighting in a scene;
whichever makes objects/effects look best and render fastest.

And actually these example shots all make use of subtle focal blur using:

camera {
   location Cam_Loc
   look_at  Cam_At
   right x*image_width/image_height
   angle 50
   #if (Use_Focal_Blur)
      aperture 2
      blur_samples 7*Focal_Blur_Factor
      focal_point <10, 0, -2>
      confidence 0.9
      variance 1/200
   #end
}

Cheers,
Rob
