modeling a product for exploded view animation

[t888eddy]

I want to model a product with real world dimensions. How can I get the camera inside the product to show each part in detail without having clipping problems? Even if I separate the parts and take the camera between them, still the same problem occurs. Is there something I am missing during the modeling stage?

Yea, the clipping issues with Max are frustrating to be sure. If in a 'Perspective' viewport, I play with the 'Field-of-View (Ctrl+W) button and can get closer to things. Combine that with normal viewport navigation and see if it helps. Are you using a 'Physical Camera', if so, set the 'Focus/Focus Distance' to zero (I think it only goes down to 0.0001).
