          now that I've migrated my stuff from Sony Vegas (which is very decent) to Adobe Premiere I have to say .. Premiere kicks ass ... those who don't like it may be encoding/editing with windows movie maker ....... lol

          I also hear good things of the Ulead video editor....

                          Used to use Avid xpress pro. Actually gave Vegas Pro 8 a shot and after rewiring my brain around it, and taking some tutorials to get used to it's quirks, I am really liking it. It seems far easier to accomplish more advanced things like colour correction and video effects.
                          Plus it can handle almost any file format, new captures, the new AVCHD hard drive codec, even previously encoded WMV's that we sometimes just wanna cut up or what ever. Unlike Avid which really didn't like to import much at all. (Yes I know it's a high end software and just doesn't bother with the prosumer formats, I know) But Vegas is the Windows version of Mac software that "It just works".

                          (PS tried migrating to Mac a couple months ago, while I was impressed at how easily it did complicated things, I switched back due to how difficult it makes the simple things, that I do on a day to day basis.)

                                          Adobe Premier Pro CS3 suite. I personally love how all the Adobe programs work together without any issues. And it handles HD like butter

                                              well ok... when i used to edit under windows, it was a combo of Premiere and After Effects.

                                              Now I've simplified my life a whole lot by switching over to MAC. You dont have much of a choice if you want to edit anything HDV and above.

                                                      I disagree, HDV is all i edit now, and Vegas handles it beautifully. Anything higher I'd still go for Avid over FCP anyway.

                                                                      why not use vegas if you're using sony cameras? it's great software and it's set up to import any sony file and plugins set it up to pull anything else.

                                                                                                      anyone who makes a statement like that needs to do research..

                                                                                                      windows based editing is all consumer and a little bit prosumer

                                                                                                      pro stuff like hollywood movies are done with other things...

                                                                                                      mac being one....

                                                                                                              Avid can be run on both windows and Macs. So not really a great argument that Windows can't do pro editing. There's a reason Hollywood movies are edited more often on it than FCP the Mac only standard.
                                                                                                              This movie is pretty recent.

                                                                                                                                                                                  But here is the point : I've edited on PCs for nearly 10 years now. I was a die hard PC user. Then I tried a MAC and realised : Oh shit, I've been complicating my life for nothing.


                                                                                                                                                                                  Still love my PCs, but when it comes to getting a job done quickly and with high quality output, I go with a MAC. Plain and simple.


                                                                                                                                                                                  If you haven't tried BOTH systems extensively, then dont even bother trying to debate the issue cause you haven't seen what the other system has to offer.


                                                                                                                                                                                  As for AVID, yes its still the backbone of mainstream hollywood, but there is a very obvious reason for it :

                                                                                                                                                                                  Editors are in a Guild... they control the game and keep the work to themselves. Most of them have been at it for 20+ years. They've learned how to edit on AVIDS and simply haven't bothered to learn another system.

                                                                                                                                                                                  Since they are seniors in the game, they decide what post-production studios equip themselves with (avids in this case), cause thats what they know. So the younger crowds have to learn to use it too if they want to stay in the game.

                                                                                                                                                                                  Once the older guys retire, the new generation of Editors will most likely switch over to a more user friendly editing system.

                                                                                                                                                                                  Why you ask? Cause who in their right minds wants to have to click 5 times just too add a bloody fade to a clip?!? hehe
