With version 5, this program has evolved into an indespensible tool in my studio. Whether I'm creating for print, web or broadcast, the ease of this program and speed of rendering is awesome (especially the network rendering). I've been able to do photorealistic "photo shoots" for clients that don't have product ready to use by importing their CAD files yet can just as easily make the same image look like a napkin scketch. Nice stuff.

Not only is the price on Carrara extremely reasonable for all it's power, but top notch plug-ins for this product are so inexpensive it's astonishing.
