I bought this when I switched to FCP 4.x in 2004. Since then I have kept it upgraded. In past versions I particularly found the Witness Protection filter quite useful. In the 6.x version I really like the new Chromakey Studio. It has a new light wrap function that creates a lighting effect around the keyed object based on the background shades. Really helps DV and HDV. I also like the extruded text function.
