Quote - my point was that if someone is pushing the boundaries of poser and starting to hit the limits of the poser renderer, i can understand them wanting to render in another renderer.
but there are very few people pushing the boundaries. and if youre not, switching to C4D is as likely to make your renders look worse as it is to make them better.
if you cant coax a good render out of Poser you wont automatically fare any better in C4D.
In my case, it's not to make them look better. It's to make the render faster.
I love firefly. But because the preview is so wildly different from the final render, many test renders are needed before a scene is ready to go. This takes a ridiculous amount of time, and time is money. Also, I'm not as young as I used to be. ;) Time runs out eventually. Sometimes before the money.
