There is a utility PoseRay which is supposed to export Poser to POVRay, an excellent renderer. Also, Poser can export RIB files which can be rendered in a RenderMan compliant renderer. BMRT is/was a freeware RenderMan renderer, there may be others. I haven't really worked with either of these but there are some alternatives. I suspect the best option for ease of use and least expense may be Vue 4. Other than that, wait for Poser 5. I think CL has gotten the message and will include a much improved render engine in the next release. When? Who knows. My completely uneducated guess 6-8 months at least.
