I have used Pinnacle pro & now I use final cut pro. Pinnacle was good but seemed to really bog my pc down & take too long. I recently got a macbook pro & with final cut, it is like cutting warm butter Here are a few of my recent hunts shot with a sony handycam 60GB HDD: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=I2cQIYDp4AE http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=KdwbnYyWXS8 Not much editing on these besides slicing to cut out unneeded footage.
