How to Get This Smooth Soft Render Look in DAZ Studio?

illmiimusic

How can I make my render look like this — with that smooth, soft effect?
It looks cinematic, with bloom and a slight haze, no harsh sharpness.

Is this done with Bloom, or something else in Iray?

Any tips on how to achieve this inside DAZ Studio?

Thanks!

look at the inconsitencies of the yellow barrier posts and some of the other elements

that screams Generative Ai

it might be a render postworked with Ai albeit Photoshop generative fill or something

I don't think it's AI Iray Mega Volcano | Daz 3D
it's some effect I always see in KindredArts renders

ah, I had no idea where the image was from as hadn't looked at that product

that said, quite a few PA promos do have postwork so no idea if this has too

now you pointed out the PA it likely is one of their other products such as https://www.daz3d.com/iray-light-volume-kit

Look for atmospheric products in the store, fog, smoke, etc..

You can use a primitive plane or series of planes with texture/emissive/opacity to achieve this effect. You can add some depth of field as well. Postwork is also another option.
