I do not have the money to invest in a full scale Poser version. Have anybody here looked into Smith Micro's new Poser Debut? It's much less money than DAZ Studio Advanced and I was just wondering if I would be able to put my Vickey, Michael and Kisds 4 in there and render with a reasonably good result.

Any thoughts would be appriciated.

I'm pretty sure Poser Debut has some limited features which you may want to explore later.   Poser Pro 2010 is on sale at Amazon at a good price ( I don't know what you can afford but this is a much lower price than SM is offering) so I would invest in that and use the features I wanted but could experiment with others later.

If so I say go for it. I made the jump from DAZ Studio to Poser Debut and have been really happy with the decision. It even has video tutorials built-in to help you quickly learn the different interface.

One observation I made really early on is that my scenes save SO much faster than they did in DS... I only wish there was a way to open DS scenes in Poser instead of having to recreate them from scratch (thanks for using proprietary file formats DAZ ).
