Great video thanks a lot...a wish for next versions...a little bit slow (sorry but for us non "american/english" spoken it's difficult to understand all)

Yes, I will slow down a bit for the next ones... I was probably just rushing through the "boring" stuff

wanted to say thanks for the video....very good tips and rules of thumb that I seemingly have neglected over the last 2 years.

Excellent video.

I really think it is the fundamentals of traditional photography and how to find the parallels in Maxwell that make the difference for getting great renders. Looking forward to the more material specific videos.

Also noticed that you take the image into Photoshop to check your exposure. Would be nice if in mxcl there was an eyedropper to check the value of a pixel. Similar to the info window or the vray frame buffer. And since it supports 32 bit now we could have the float value along with the 8 bit values for easy adjusting to get a correct exposure.

Just speculating also but similar to Photoshop where you can increase the sample size from a single pixel to a 3x3 or 5x5 set. This would be great at low sampling levels where there is still a large variance in adjacent pixels.
