Q. What's the best video editor?
A. I have used five...
Final Cut Pro Mac only $1300
Adobe Premier Mac and PC $ 900
Avid Xpress Pro Mac and PC $1600
iMovie Mac only included with Mac OS
Windows Movie Maker Windows only included with XP and Vista
Notes...
As you'd expect the free editors are extremely limited.
Final Cut Pro is the best choice if you're using a Mac.
Adobe Premier integrates nicely with Adobe After Effects (special effects)
and Adobe Photoshop.
Avid is used more in professional environments.
You can buy a device called the Avid Mojo ($1300) to accelerate
Avid. Which makes editing on a laptop practical.
