All popular Amazon reviews are one star, worst I ever saw for NLE.
@Vitaliy_Kiselev , yes, i use it for my video work, and it works great for me. Lot of plugins included. I own also Corel VideoStudio Pro X3, but i like more Avid Studio v1.

@Vitaliy_Kiselev , now I'm a bit worried about future of Avid Studio ...
Considering free stuff we have separate topic, this one is not for them.
Once again, Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 11 for $70 with $40 and $30 rebates for a grand total of $0
Really? May be soon it'll be -$20? :-)

Good deal, but I doubt that it is proper topic for this.

If you look at package it has special "Recommended by Panasonic" badge :-)
@Vitaliy_Kiselev Any ideas as to what feature(s) or support led to the reccomendation?
I have no idea.
In this niche MAGIX is the leader. Plus they have very good sales as I am aware.
They buy developers and companies and just add all this to their bundles (check their Samplitude Studio).
They are also known for not destroying software teams.
I download the trial version of MAGIX, like it has slow motion with frame interpolation, image stabilizer, nice effects but it´s really weak in colour correction, has not level adjust.
but it´s really weak in colour correction
Last time I checked it had quite standard color correction options (shadows, midtones, highlights). One for primary and one for secondary color correction.
New LIghtworks Accessories: (A lot to spend at the high end but free version still available)
$140
Console $2800
After month of trying to work with Lightworks I give up. Simply basic function like know or decide where to save the projects is not possible, you could not decide frame rate or size of the Video. Third party plug-ins like Twixtor are not supported. Every request that people make in the forum receive an answer like: This is a professional NLE and we don´t care about it. (F.E. frame interpolation in slow motion). They only take care of positive feed-back. So thanks V.K. suggestion I switched to Magix Video DeLuxe 2013. Has little stability problem wen rendering but it´s really good, (I used before Premiere Pro CS4). It has a really powerful denoising plug-in that helped me a lot with high ISO footage. Opposed to Lightworks It´s really simple to learn. Here is a low budget footage that I made for a distillery completely cut with Magix Video DeLuxe 2013:
@kihlian I tried Magix Move Edit Pro and although the lay-out and ability to edit was fantastic I found the performance to be really poor.
For example I added two AVCHD 28mb/s clips, applied minor colour correction, slowed them both to 80% and a simple cross-fade and it literally ground to a halt.
PC = Intel i7 - 64bit - 16gb RAM - SSD - Nvidia Geforce 670
We normally use Corel X5 and it never really slows down at all, even when working with multiple tracks. (I dont use the Smart Proxy feature)
So I dont think the capabilities of the PC are the problem. Is there anything I may be doing wrong? It was a trial version but I cant see how this would make a difference.
Is it last version?
Plus Magix is not really great for realtime rendering if you have multiple things running.
Yeah downloaded latest trial version of Movie Edit Pro 2013.
I think if you'll use intraframe and remove frame interpolation it'll be quite good.
Thanks, i'll give it another try then.
I really wanted it for the multi cam editor
I suggest also to try MAGIX VIDEO PRO X4
