Image Sampler
...
Overall image sampling - Raytrace renders, like V-Ray, shoot rays out from the camera to sample what is found in the scene to help determine what color each pixel will be in a rendered image. The settings used to adjust how the V-Ray render engine does this, and the relationship between pixels in the render can be found on the Image Sampler (Anti-Aliasing) page. To see the settings for the V-Ray GPU render engine, please visit the V-Ray GPU Setup page.
Image samples pattern - When rendering animations, you can specify whether to lock the pattern, in which V-Ray shoots the image samples, or change it for each frame. Additionally, Blue Noise sampling optimization is used to disribute the samples in a uniform way across the image to help visually reduce noise with fewer samples. In all cases, re-rendering the same frame will produce the same pattern. These options are controlled from the DMC Sampler.
Region rendering - When V-Ray uses the bucket image sampler, the rendered image is broken up into small pieces, also known as buckets, to help calculate and complete the image faster. The settings used to adjust these buckets can be found within the Render Region Division page.
Color Mapping
...
A camera in the real world uses exposure controls to determine how it handles the brightest and darkest parts of a captured image. Similarly, V-Ray uses Color Mapping to help translate the information collected by the sample rays into usable pixels we see within our rendered image. For more details on how to control the way V-Ray maps these values, please see the Color Mapping page.
