Thanks for reporting, we will look into this!

In this case the fireflies are actually expected. See this guide: https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/5000529356
What you can try to overcome them, other than what is advised in that guide:

  • Using less intensive and less sharp light source (e.g. overcast HDRI instead of Corona Sun)
  • Lowering the overall reflection glossiness of the grass material (something as low as 0,3 - 0,4 should work)
  • Using Corona Denoiser in “remove fireflies” mode
  • Using Highlight Clamping in Render Setup > System (not Highlight Compression in the VFB) - but remember this will kill the high dynamic range in your image if you need to save in 32 bits
  • Rendering in double resolution and then reducing

Okay, thanks for the info!
