Looking for the right rendering software

Till now, I've been rendering kitchens and custom furniture using Cad 2005.

in the very near future, I'd like to learn how to do architectural renderings; photo realistic ones, of houses, commercial spaces, furniture, bathroons, kitchens, etc etc etc .

With so many different options of software out there, I really have no idea which one to focus on and purchase.

is there one (of the autodesk family of software) that is specific to what I'm looking for?

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Added to that, if anyone knows of an online course type thing that teaches you the proper way to render (or use whatever software you recommend) it would be appreciated.

Thank you,

let's stick your question in the 3D section where you'll probably find other threads to help you decide too

You can see many photo realistic images in "show case" thread!

Then you will see what software they used & you can choice as
