This reminds me of the stories surrounding Red cameras, making products that are better and substantially cheaper and pissing off the companies that have been doing the products for years making buckets of cash and not innovating much. On Mon, Mar 8, 2010 at 11:53 AM, Rev. Stewart Marshall

Well they seem to have a winner here with FCP. It will not revolutionize the industry, but it sure is making a dent. Enabling budding producers to make movies that will get noticed. Stewart At 01:02 PM 3/8/2010, you wrote: This reminds me of the stories surrounding Red cameras, making

What a laugh. The story reads like an ad for FC Studio, not surprising since it's in Cnet's Apple section. But in fact what it says is that most of the nominees did *not* use FCP. On Sun, Mar 7, 2010 at 8:19 PM, tjpa t...@tjpa.com wrote: And Adobe will be pissed off. Apple's FCP entered the

I think the key is that it did say. Final Cut Pro has almost 50 percent market share in the nonlinear editor space, outperforming competitors like Avid. Many of the big studios and editors may not use it, instead using dedicated expensive editing suites. (They were pretty specific to state
