As far as I understand it, 3dStudio is no Raytracer. It can only render in 
Scanline mode (with some tricks to add shadows and some simple reflections).
Imagine can do real raytracing, Also it can use more brushes and textures on a
single object.

On the other hand, the 3D Studio previewer and object editors seems better. 

We won't argue about price;)

correct me if I'm wrong by the way!

bye,
sammy
