In response to the OP's original question, and also to some of the replies, I use Poser to pose figures, then export them to Blender for the render. A scene that took over 8 hours to render in Poser 11 takes me 45 minutes in Blender (Superfly vs Cycles), so the time spent collecting the bits was more than made up by the improved render times. I can create whole scenes in Blender (for free) and use the instancing capabilities to make large and complex scenes that will crash Poser or DS.

I am very impressed with what Bondware have done for this release, far exceeding my expectations, but like the OP, unless they have improved the FBX export and the collection of textures for obj exports (which failed every time in Poser 11), I have no need to purchase Poser 12. If they have improved those such that they actually port to Blender, I would buy it as it would significantly improve my workflow.
