Don't buy this product. I work a lot with after effects and photoshop and although it works fine, the wacom cintiq companion is a much better choice.

I'm now using Edius and it's the finest video editor I've seen. It far exceeds Final Cut Pro or Adobe Pro in price and I don't suppose they could perform any better, especially not on my pc. I even tried it on my laptop and it works fine, the render time is longer though.

I use Pinnacle Studio 12 ( acutally it's 12.1 - the Ultimate version ) and it works pretty well with my Quad Core computer and a good video card for editing AVCHD footage from this camera. I'm very pleased.Tony

Hi i don't know how serious you are about photo editing but I have done it for years and find Photoshop Elements 6 to be excellent. I have used it for about a year now. It came out later that the one for windows so when windows came out with PE7 for windows I called adobe and asked them if it had more features in the windows version and he said that PE7 for windows was the same as PE 6 for mac because the mac version came out later it had all the new features first. It has many of the features of the much more expensive full version of photoshop. There are online tutorials to help you learn it and there is tech support. I bought it originally for under $100 and upgrades are cheaper. If you do a search you might find it cheaper. The new version of Iphoto is also very good. It comes free with the new macs or it is part of Ilife 09. I have looked into Adobe lightroom and Aperture 2 and have not been persuaded that they are necessary for me. PE6 for mac has raw support for many cameras . Hope that helps. Ron

I run Corels' Paint Shop Pro X which can use Photoshop plug-ins without problem. You do have room to upgrade the graphics card if you want to.

I use Photoshop Element which is provided with the tablet to edit and retouch my photos and I found it is easy to do so. The edited photo were awesome.

I don't use any video edit programs, so the only thing I can suggest is to try it. Good luck. I do love the Envy H8, and with my high speed internet (7-8 Mbs), it moves along quite nicely.

I have Elements 5 and Paintshop Pro 8 (and 7). All are very good, but the emphasis is different. I use Elements for processing my DSLR photos using the included Adobe Camera Raw. It is reasonably easy to use and the quality of the results is excellent. I use the PTlens plugin to correct for lens defects and Elements works well with this. I very occasionally like to use a feature that Adobe has left out in order to avoid competing with full Photoshop. Examples include Curves adjustment layers and fully automated batch editing. In this case I switch to Paintshop Pro, which invariably does have the missing feature. If you don't know why you would need these features, you probably don't! I don't use the built in Organiser, because I started using Picassa (free from Google) for this purpose and I see no reason to change. For design work, such as web design, I would personally choose to use Paintshop Pro, because its feature set is more complete, (Paintshop Pro 8 is roughly equivalent to Photoshop version 6), and because those advanced features are more easily accessible. Other people that I know would choose to use full Photoshop instead, and I can understand their point of view. Photoshop Elements needs quite a powerfull (i.e. new) computer, if it is not to seem slow. I understand that this is also true for the latest Paint Shop Pro. Finally, you can download both of these products for a free month's trial, so why not try then out and make your mind up after that?

I don't know about Vegas Pro, but Sony Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 9 certainly can. Since Vegas Pro is the far more expensive professional version of Vegas Movie Studio Platinum, it's hard to imagine that it can't also do this. You zoom in on video clips in exactly the same way as you do with still photos. Keep in mind that if you do this, you almost certainly want to deinterlace your video if it wasn't filmed in progressive mode. It's not a big deal, just something you need to keep in mind. However, if you intend to do this often, you might want to shoot your video in progressive mode to avoid the deinterlace process altogether.

The P7700 ships with Nikon View NX. It allows for basic photo editing and organization tasks. This may be a good starting point for you. I use Apeture from Apple on my MacBook Pro or if you own a Mac you can also use iPhoto with the P7700. I'm sure there is something similar to iPhoto on the Windows platform. Adobe Lightroom, while not free, is very good and relatively low cost.

I also have the pro 4x, I have never had the issue you seem to have. other than the 20 overlay tracks and the 3rd party add on's with the ultimate I can't see any difference. the main reason I upgraded was for these features as well as the price. I got it on sale at amazon and used rewards points on my credit card so it only cost me about $15. When I do a project I always seem to have alot of stills as well as video, for that reason I make several 3 or 4 minute clips saving them in mp4 format, then I stitch them together. That way if I'm well into the project & decide I want to make a change near the start It's no big deal, just change the one clip. Dave

I still haven't figured out how to take stills but I just pause the video where I want to take a picture, switch it to full screen and then take a screen shot. photo editing... no. If your going to use this for video editing this is AWESOME! If your going to use this for photo editing this wont work for you at all. I recommend purchasing this for video/sound/music and purchasing adobe lightroom for photo editing. Hope this helped.

It depends very much on camera, software and LIGHTING. I used it for a school project and filmed with an iPhone. Editing was done on a Mac. With a few exceptions for lighting where it was uneven and it confused the software slightly, I got pretty good results. Try a brightly lit room if you haven't already.
