Lightroom Lens Blur

If you would like to post, you'll need to register. Note that if you have a BCG store account, you'll need a new, separate account here (we keep the two sites separate for security purposes).

Do you consider it cheating? I know there's a lot of debate around AI tools in post-processing and I'm wondering if people apply this opinion to this [newish] tool in Lightroom.

From my perspective, I can't afford big, f4 lenses, making do with a Nikon 500pf: It's a great lens, but the bokeh in certain circumstances isn't the best and the lens blur tool really helps.

I don't enter competitions often, but do you think this sort of PP will fall foul of most regulations?

What are your thoughts?

Edit: I should clarify that for my own, private photos, I have no objection to using it, and do so, but I'm thinking in wider terms, perhaps even for publication work.
