Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations about video editing
hardware/software to transfer VHS to Mac via firewire/usb. Any good and/or
bad reports greatly appreciated - cheers.
Depending on what level of editing you need to do, I find iMovie to
be pretty good (and better at outputting to some DV cameras than
Final Cut Pro :) Don't forget iMovie can be beefed up with third
party effects plug-ins.
For those not afraid to do some basic scripting to 'roll their own'
effects I find VideoScript to be pretty useful too...

QuickTime Pro is also useful if you want to cut and paste bits of
movies together. There are a number of similar tools listed at
<http://www.versiontracker.com/php/search.php?mode=basic&action=search&str=movie+edit&plt%5B%5D=macosx&x=8&y=8>
A copy of iMovie 4 & iDVD - The Missing Manual is also a good
stocking stuffer :)

Have fun,
