If Bryce was as powerful as the "big boys" for $70, Bryce would OWN the entire industry, but the fact is it is NOT as powerful in far more aspects than just the rendering engine.

Well, Innovator, it's much more powerful in some regards. Like exactly the rendering engine. You get stuff like caustics and true ambience for $70. You have to buy an additional module in Cinema to get caustics, for instance.

Of course, that quality is heavily offset by the slowness of rendering, but still...

For stills, Bryce offers much more than any other program, especially in regard to its price. As for animation, like Rochr, I wouldn't dare speak about it, cause I'm not doing any.
