Light FX plug-ins for AE
I am asking for feedback on lighting FX plug-ins for After Effects.
What do you use, and what do you like about it?

Could you be a bit more specific about what kind of light fx things you have in mind? Do you mean stuff for relighting? Or do you mean rays like Shine from Trapcode? Or do you mean lens flares like Knoll Light Factory and Optical Flares? Or do you mean…etc. etc. etc.

Lighting FX- as the previous posts mention, that can be a very broad topic.
Lens Flares – Optical Flares, Knoll Light Factory, Boris Continuum…
Light FX – the ones AE has (CC) and Trapcode Shine, Lux, some stuff in Boris as well
Lights in other plugins – Zaxwerks ProAnimator 8 and up has some great lights and light rigs, Element 3D has it’s own Lights and soon the Mettle plugins as well.

Hi everyone. I let this thread get away from me; I apologize for not responding sooner.
I was thinking in terms of rays and flares.
There was one we had on an older system. Man I wish I could remember what it was. Produced some sweet, finely detailed ray effects, and rendered efficiently.
