Reviews
Switched from Avid to Final Cut in 2001, never looked back.
I'm a fan since vs 1!
hands down the most used piece of software I own - If final cut studio was a place, I would live there.
Home sweet home!
User since v. 1.1
what can I say more?

Have been using FCP since version 1. Like it so much it made me switch to a Mac.
Back when Quicktime was a mere baby, I used Adobe Premiere on my now antique Mac. I recall how the video used to stutter and audio would drift out of sync but I managed some pilots with effects and some pretty decent showreels that actually got me a lot of work. Then I graduated to Media 100 in the late 90's . Much more professional but it was abandoned for a while during all the changing of hands. Luckily Final Cut stepped in and I've not looked back. Can't wait to upgrade my Mac to Intel so I can upgrade to the newest FC.
Because really, why would we be here without it?
I have only worked with Final Cut so don't really know about the others. Its a great solution for my work with events, weddings, promo etc. I like the round tripping from FC to motion etc but you need to track where u put your assets so they don't loose their link if u copy it to portable drives.
my workhorse application, and getting better with each upgrade.
great product, happy with it
Love It
