solidworks 2014 and rendering: which support program?

[-Mc-]

hello to all;
I press that I have looked for the topic on the forum, but it has never been treated specifically.
my goal is to create a realistic catalog of sheet metal parts and furniture/design accessories, starting from a 3d solidworks.
the objective is not so much the setting on the background (I would use a neutral background), but to have an image that makes well the idea of the object of reality, built and painted.
I have to get this result, without losing too much time and without weighing too much the use of the pc.
we talked a few days ago about photoview and tried to use the package: I don't know how to use it professionally, but it seems to me that the result is poor and misused.
Do you have any advice?
which program can I use to have realistic jpg images?
Is there another solidworks application (to be used within the program) or is it better to work out of sw through file extensions?
Thank you.

Given the results of some renders of my friend I'm advised. . .

I tried but I can't get a good result. the image I get is always too "isometrica" and little "optical view" and colors / shadows are not very realistic. . .
what settings do you use? I can try with your advice.
Thank you!

Can you use it? is it very complicated to use?

... you have to use the cameras to set focus, perspective, and all.
However the photoview is too dispersive, there is good to make simple unpretentious.

look, to say of my friend (and former colleague:36_1_4 simple and intuitive.
however it has a library of fantastic materials and settings.
try downloading the trial version.

Yes, I used sw cameras but there is no realistic view. Unfortunately the image always remains too isometric and the colors too net.
photoview has some features in more than sw but, besides being really slow, I can't find settings that make "live" and, above all, clear the image.

 

[Mike1967]

in these two pictures two different camera settings
the first is without perspective, in the second instead there is. I exaggerated to emphasize the effect.
Sorry about the quality but I did it in 5 minutes.

but did you use the sw room or do you have a perspective system in photo view?

This is the camera, do not forget to set it as a figure.
under a couple make it with photoview.
nothing but makes the idea

mike's right.
keyshot is very professional for this kind of thing.
However you do also with autocad renderings at a certain level.
depends on how you use it...
This is another example with sw without cameras. very quickly... .

 

[mix1977]

you have to set the perspective and choose the goal... then set the distances and the fire and you will see

Thank you all! now I have curious about photo view;

keyshot is very professional for this kind of thing.

depends on how you use it...
This is another example with sw without cameras. very quickly... .

Did you do this with photo view?
now I downloaded the trial version of keyshot;
I'll try it soon. I must try to make as much as possible an object photograph, a very simple product made in 3d;
I have no complex assemblies to process, but very simple things like a shaped sheet, a table etc..
Can you give me a tip on how to set the effects step by step starting from the default of the two programs?
how do you normally proceed?

 

[xxfast]

Look, I personally did courses.
variables are multiple from the type of object you have to render.
difficult to explain here without seeing the object and environment you would like to recreate.
However keishot is very simple to use.
