Ever since the I got C6, I've used Carrara to set up everything, other than the occasional miss behaving items, or importing dynamic clothing. I just find it is easier to use a single application to set up and render in. If I plan to render in Carrara, then I use Carrara to set everything up. The same is true for Poser or DS.   If you really like using the sliders to pose, then Carrara will take some getting used to. But it is so much easier to use a single application when possible, I think it's well worth working through the learning curve to do everything in Carrara. Just remember when you come accross those few items that just don't seem to come into Carrara the way they should (sometimes clothes that don't quite fit right, or prop scenes that come in all messed up) you can "set them up" in Poser, save as a pz3, and 90% of the time they will come into Carrara without any issues.

I also prefer using Daz Studio materials when possible, or if available the "plain" mat pose materials, not the Poser Shader materials, as the first 2 usually work much better without a lot af adjusting. I've only used Poser imports for 3 of the images in my gallery. The first 2 were before you could pose poser figures in Carrara, and the third one (Waiting for ......) was one of those cases where the clothing for Tanya didn't fit properly when the character was morphed in Carrara, but fit perfectly in Poser. I set up the character, clothing and morphs and pose in Poser, then imported with Transposer and completed/rendered the scene in Carrara.

Hope this helps - Happy rendering!!
