Video Editing Software
 
Any recommendations?

Ive used Media Studio Pro 6 in the past. Anyone got any favourites and why would you recommend it?

Yeah I use this, forgot which version. It came with my Canon Camcorder, but the only problem with it is that you don't have enough control of the media clip...as in you can't breakapart a 10 second clip into many chunks, for example...

if you can then you've just made my day! :D

You can, if you use the timeline view.
Stretch the timeline, point where you want to cut it and click the 'split' icon above the timeline.

HTH

Adobe Premiere is about the best choice, and its fairly simple to use. Although the new Pro version is a b*stard to use compared to the old 6.5 version, but thats because ive been taught to use 6.5 rather than Pro (version 7) and there are alot of changes :( But there are some nice features in Pro, like being able to add audio plugins to audio tracks, such as compression (useful on vocal tracks etc, keep a constant level :)).

Apart from Adobe, you havnt got alot of choice, unless you want to start getting into top professional editing suits, Avid Studio (i think its called that) will set you back about 3 grand.

As for the sony vegas thing, yea alright :rofl: If sony camrecorders are crap (for the money you pay), then i dont think their "professional" editing software is going to be any better :rolleyes:

iMovie for the mac and Microsoft Movie Maker 2 are both a good starting point and free.

I tried the latest version of Adboe Premiere but as i have an AMD processor and not an Intel it doesnt run.
