#Want to purchase hardwar
3 messages in this thread
I've just purchased R3 of 3D Studio. I'm interested in getting the
appropriate hardware to render videos. I understand the Sony EVO-9650
and the Targa + 16 are good entry level components. Is this true, and
is there a source for getting used but well maintained examples?
Darrin, You may want to call Autodesk at 800-525-2763 and ask for an
Autodesk Authorized Multimedia Dealer or "Dealer(S) near you. Where
are you located? As to the EVO-9650 and the Targa+ I'm a Sanyo
GVR-S950 and Matrox Illuminator Pro Dealer so I'm extreemly biased.
<g> You also gotta think long and hard about the Exabyte/ASDG Driver
set-up depending on you final output requirements. Seriously though
I'm sure your going to get a lot of good feed-back on that particular
combination. If you need more information on the Matrox and Sanyo
just give me a call at (414) 435-7345 or (414) 437-3898. James

I'd avoid those 2 items entirely and look at a motion JPEG product
called DPS Personal Animation Recorder. You can play full frame
(756×480), full colour, full speed (30fps) animations off a special
hardrive and record in composite, s-video, or betacam/MII formats.
All for around $2600. Get an Exabyte tape backup too, and you'd have
all the capability you'd need for any type of client.
