i couldn't care less tho..
i choose C4D cuz it's easy to use... i almost only render with cell-shading or cartoon-like.. and C4D does the job more then excellent.

I love the way Cinema 4D works. The interface is so easy to understand and very customizable. True that the modelling tools are qite average without Mesh Surgery, but the modelling core of the program has been re-written in R9 and they've added heaps of new nifty tools.
I use Maya also, only because thats what we're using at uni this semester. It's pretty good too. Doesn't seem as hard to understand as people say.
I've used Lightwave for one semester at uni too and i couldnt stand it. The interface is so disgusting and it has way too many little annoyances.
Anyway, for mac, C4D is still the best option in my opinion, then maya.
But as rizon said, if you're only interested in modelling... look into Modo.

I don't have any experience with 3D and I'd like to learn CINEMA 4D. When I open it and click around I don't have any clue of what I'm doing. What's the best way to start? Are there good cinema4D tutorial sites or anything?

whatever the planet. i don't even think you've EVER opened c4d or else you would KNOW what a superior choice it is as a 3d program. i can't even believe it.

How can you say you like C4D?Lightwave is so much better.
Question: Can C4D do HDRI lighting? I didn't think so.

-------------------haha, theplanet, you is funny guy.
The HDRI rendering option in C4D IS present and more then excellent!
ps.: i find the usability much better in C4D then in Lightwave, but that's just personal preference..
yea, me luv C4D looong time!

I use C4D, is cool and easyer than 3DSMAX, anyway, what is HDRI rendering?

j_red, more like j_wrong! your arguement is not unlike my dump this morning: loose and full of inconsistencies.
everyone knows strata studio pro was the greatest 3d app ever. its multi-faceted lathing functions leave its inferior counterparts in the proverbial dust. slam!
