I'm definitely wanting this but for $1200, I really need more real life 'proof' of the features offered. Has anyone used this? If yes, what's your opinion of the features? If you have a before/after clip you can share, that would be really awesome!
Final Cut Studio 2 is a really awesome tool. The truth is that a before/after doesn't represent the features. Since it is a professional tool, it takes time to master it, and one persons results can not accurately show you what you can do with it, as you must build these skills. I suggest you watch the Final Cut Pro 6 quick tour to learn about it. http://movies.apple.com/movies/us/a...finalcutpro_quicktour_20080408_r640-10cie.mov
Also note that some people are expecting Apple to release a new version, likely FCS3, perhaps at the NAB show in just over a week.
