You think you're saving huge bucks up front, but you lose that to lost time in bug hunts, system tweaks, and expensive third party plugins.įor the sake that virtually all NLE's will cut a majority of the work out there, both Adobe and FCP will do the job.

I have little time and patience anymore to make windows solutions do what a Mac can do right out of the box. You would be willing to pay more to ensure you get the work.įurthermore, at least for myself, it's gets tiring wearing both an editors and IT technicians hat. However, there's greater security in both stability and conformity, and FCP on Mac has that. The only reason I can see for why most individuals use windows is because it's much cheaper, and there's a larger selection of components and software. However, I can see rejection if the roles were reversed and I was working/providing for a larger studio. Usually I'm the one on the receiving end and paying for the service, so it's not a big issue. I work in a corporate environment with the adove suite, and have been challenged with sharing projects cut on FCP. Has a open timeline, Prores codec, and via Compressor very easy to get the format you want - in Premiere, it's much more difficult to compress from one thing to another, much less options.Ībout my annoyance in Premiere: with Final Cut (ans some other NLE's, it seems) you can just unlink all the audio from the video on your timeline with one click.Ĭon's of Final Cut: I have the feeling it does less real time preview then Premiere, but I could be wrong. Has Color, although this version has many bugs. Pro's of Final Cut: although similar, has a brighter interface (also in tearms of use), has almost all possible video codecs supported out of the box. Less support in the industry, less supported codecs out of the box. Does the job.Ĭon's of Premiere: some little things are clumsy, I often refer to this, but having to unlink all your audio from your video footage clip by clip on the timeline is time consuming and really, annoys me to hell! Pro's of Premiere: tight integration with Photoshop (and other Adobe Products), good real time preview often.

I'm going to upgrade from the Premiere Suite to Final Cut Studio 2 too. If you look at the price of photoshop and AE on a Mac you could buy the whole package for $400.00 Cheaper. Hey just upgrade or see if you can get a cross grade to a Mac of your Adobe package and have both. My business may be growing but it is not growing that fast or that big. The thing that I have a hard time with is the massive marketing hold that FCP has on the industry it is hard for a guy like me to work against such a huge machine.
I believe that they are roughly the same program in today's market but with little differences here or there. One final word is I would love to stay with Adobe but from a business stand point I need to switch to FCP. Everyone will have pluses and minuses to each program. I wish I was able to ask this very question on a forum like this and maybe someone would have given me something more to chew on besides how they compare in this feature or that feature. I look back on it now and realize I should have made the switch back then. It sounds like you are at the same crossroads I was at a few years ago. All I can give you is my advice from a business stand point. I have not used the FCP GUI for awhile now so I can not give you concrete comparisons in that respect. One thing that FCP has that Adobe does not have is more codec support right out of the box no need for additional plug-ins. On the other hand if you want to collaborate and work with people with in your film/TV community I bet you would find that you need to go to FCP. I think they are great and have come along way from 5.0 and with Cineform backing them up on the codec side for HD you can't miss.
I think if you plan on being a company that is contained with in it self then by-all-means stick with Adobe products.

I truly believe that most of any editing could be done with Movie Maker or iMovie given most cuts in a show are straight cuts. Also most of the production people that I know and collaborate with are on FCP.

I have been passed on offline editing jobs because my workflow did not match with the post-production houses workflow. The sad part is that it is all in camera work. I have worked very hard to build my business and I am finally growing faster then I can handle sometimes. I was never a huge fan of the A/B Editing I almost switched then but then Premiere Pro came out and I stuck with it. I have been using Premiere since version 5.0. I hate to say this but I am going to make the switch to FCP S2 this month.
