Apple Final Cut Pro 2.0
I love Final Cut, and version 2 is even better than the original. I can’t get over how Apple makes it so easy for the beginner, but so responsive to the power user. For ages editing suites have defined different styles of editing that prevent easy cross-over. Final Cut Pro ends the division between the “Avid” editor or the “Media 100″ editor and shows that you can accommodate different editing styles in one application.
MacMerc’s Field Manual Breakdown:
Apple Final Cut Pro 2.0
Price:
A giveaway at $1000, when compared to competitors
Performance:
The most flexible of any NLE
Compatability:
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: Monkeys could edit in Final Cut.
Complaints:
FCP dominates one monitor, I suggest using it with two.
