What their Customers Are Saying
“As an avid KeyShot user since Version 2, I feel this is the next big step for this amazing rendering
program. The huge addition for me is the ‘Interior’ lighting mode. Even if you’re not planning on doing
architectural visualization, you’ll appreciate the interior optimization for those product shots where
lifelike daylight with graphic cast shadows produced from the surrounding environment is needed.” — Vitaly Bulgarov, Concept Designer

again. With Keyshot 6, Luxion not only shows how fast rendering can be, they make a home at the top of
the list for best rendering solution.” — Tim Feher, Feherfactor.com
