Sam,
My thanks also for looking into the problem with rendering in 2011.
I have not installed 2011 yet, precisely because of this report, so I haven't tested the various settings to see which ones are involved in the problem. I have never cranked up the output size to the 4000x2800 J Mcintyre initially reported. However, the suggested 1024x768 would be quite a step backwards from 2010 and earlier, as like Nathan, I normally render my finals at 1600x1200. Do the presets (Low, Medium, High and Presentation) also fall into these new limitations of the rendering engine? Also, what about Final Gather and Rays, or Global Illumination? Is it output size only that is compromised in the new version, or are or other settings as the above also involved?
