Yeah, it has it's own batch processing module, plus it will run in AE or any app that uses photoshop plugins as well.

I've never tried any of the other plugins out there, so I can't compare.

Xdof still suffers from the same problems as doing it in post, AA
issues at the focus area etc (it's not 3d dof). So I would say doing
it in post is your best bet anyway, where at least you don't have to
rerender you 'beaty' passes when you're not happy with the results.

Haven't tried Dof Pro, but if you use After Effects (works with Fusion
too) you can use Frischluft Lenscare. It's great, and as far I can see
it does everything that Dof Pro does. Using such a plugin in a
compositing app like AE or Fusion is more useful than in Photoshop for
most people, I would guess.
