My Final Cut Pro X review now online

The Editblog has been relatively quiet on the subject of Final Cut Pro X (with the exception of the burning questions and omf export) since its release just a few weeks ago. That’s mainly because I had been busying really kicking the tire on the application (in addition to regular editing work) trying to dig in for the FCPX Hand On Tour webinar and a full review for Studio Daily. That review has just come online so I wanted to point to it here.

As I began working with FCPX I was jotting down notes as I went along. These were notes on things I liked, things I didn’t like, things that were missing and new things that had been added. As I was reviewing those notes for the Studio Daily review I realized they were somewhat disjointed. At times they made perfect sense and other times I couldn’t exactly decipher something that I had written down. The more I thought about the notes the more I realized that’s exactly how I felt about FCPX. It felt disjointed and unfinished but with flashes of some really useful stuff.

And as I was writing the review I realized the review itself was feeling the same way so I tried to leave that feel in the review itself. Who knows how and how fast Apple will improve FCPX (I mean ... it can only get better right?) but apparently they are working on just that. Also, who knows exactly how much Apple is really going to dedicate to making it the pro-focused application that FCP7 was. With Apple’s track record of killing off most all pro-video applications I certainly wouldn’t build a business around FCPX. Thankfully there’s a lot of other choices.

I hope the Final Cut Pro X review is helpful.
