I don't have a title for this

I used Final Cut Pro X for a while. And I formed some opinions about it.

Oh, and since it's been asked: I cut this with Premiere 5.5 on my laptop. Never used Premiere before, needed a project to learn on.

Please Apple.... Get your shit together.

this is not so much about 'video editing' yes, an editor can work with any tool. People are upset because they have entire workflows involving so many other departments, connecting to FCP. No one HAS to switch to FCPX, but in a few years when some new tech or camera system is all the rage, there will be no support for said professionals, the entire system slowly dies, this is why people are freaking out. FCPX is fine, but killing 7 at the same time sends a brutal message to FC pros.

Only a windows user is stupid enough to think that mac programs are not installed as a single "App" that can be deleted and moved...

I have never gotten so much frustration out of a program. years ago, I started on Final Cut Pro 7, but later i was forced to switch to Final Cut Pro X. I'm sorry, but I HATE IT. All the simple tasks that I could do in Pro 7, just seem so arbitrary and complicated in X. Every time I get stuck on the stupidest issue in X, I have to go on a scavenger hunt on google, trying to find a solution to my problem. And I usually never find a solution, so I just quit the project out of frustration. FUCK X.

Only a mac user is stupid enough to think you delete a program by putting the desktop shortcut in the trash bin..

FCPX works perfectly for me. HD monitoring, multicam edit, ProTool mix etc... no pb !

[arrozconchoros]

JUST FCP 7 or 6 . or Premiere.

FCX Will never be a professional editing tool, it's designed so any iFool can edit their iJunk on any iToy, thats the way Apple are heading. This program is a joke and no serious editor would consider it. Premiere can do something that this pile of junk can't - import FCP7 projects! I think that says it all. I have edited on FCP7 and on Premiere CS5.5 and I prefer FCP7 but have switched to CS5.5 because it is many times faster, does everything FCP7 does (and more) and is not a dead horse.

Extreme fanboyism at its best.
