Notice that most of you talk about animations, and granted, Cinema is the best tool for that, but i still have to defend Bryce just a little... :) For still images, the difference still only lies in the modeling tools and the rendertime, not the render. Feel free to show an example (apart from the modeling), on a still that cant be done in Bryce with some tweaking. Also, and i speak for myself, fun, is a big factor, and so far, C4D havent gave me any WOW feelings, like Bryce did when i first started to use it. It will most likely grow, but ive already found some very annoying stuff. The viewpoint is one thing. No matter what i do, i cant move around the cam AND have the model/points/polygons selected at the same time. I have to choose one of them. The 4 pan view still sucks. Half of the time spent on a model, is to resize different views so you can see the stuff. Little, yet very important things. Still, i like the app, and want to learn more, but for me, its going to be a modeling tool. Bryce will still be my first choise for still renders, even though its slow. Simply beacuse the results are good enough. :)
