what advance rendering from C5 is cover in your advance rendering section? I sure didn't see Ambient Occlusion or irrandiance mapping the TWO new advance rendering features in C5? and are this Carrar 5 features in the book? New particle system, replicator, surface replicator, ambient occlusion, irrandiance map, anisotropic lighting model, fresnel, translucency channel, weight painting, new volumetric clouds, matchmoving, include/exclude lights, bounding box display, smoothing of multiple objects and not all the new tools in t"he vertex modeler." Some of the new Vertex modeling tools yes but not rest of things on that list that are all C5 new features. Yes you did spend a great deal in the modeling room after al l it is what you know best in Carrara but I was hoping for more Carrara 5 related stuff. The material in the book is good and I pointed that in my review but I cannot call that a Carrara 5 Pro book it just doesn't have the most of the new stuff. You know that is what most users wanted to learn. Ringo
