This page provides information about the Reflection Filter Render Element in V-Ray for Cinema 4D.
Overview
While the Raw Reflection Render Element gives the full reflection of objects reflecting in the scene, the Reflection Filter shows how much of that reflection should come through in the composite. In other words, the filter defines the strength of the reflection, while the raw image defines what is being reflected in the image. When these two elements are multiplied, the true level of reflection is given and produces the Reflection Render Element. Using these component parts of the reflection, you can fine-tune the reflection in your final composite.
The Reflection Filter element is a sub-component in the main Beauty Pass.
