One of my other hobbies is editing the video footage I take on holidays into small but (hopefully) interesting and entertaining wee fillums (not those sort of fillums, Pig Cat).
Up until this year I've been getting on well with my JVC digital camera with DV-out, and not quite so well with my Pinnacle Studio Plus editing software (it's got some rendering niggles that never seem to get sorted out from version to version). However the JVC is getting a bit long in the tooth, so I elected to buy a camera with no moving parts in the video storage area, i.e. not a tape or a hard drive.
I've ended up with a Panasonic HDC-SD200, which stores video on an SD card (I have a 16GB card in it which will hold 6 hours of HD footage - stunning, I remember when you couldn't get more than 700KB on a floppy, this is Star Trek technology).
The problem is, the camera doesn't work with my version of Pinnacle Studio Plus (version 10). So I thought I'd throw the query out to the rarely-defeated TSR forum. Anyone do this sort of thing and have experiences of or opinions about video editing software? I'm not looking to remake Lord of the Rings here, so I'm not thinking of spending thousands of pounds on a video editing suite.
Over to you guys...
