 Overall, Pretty Good January 6, 2009

Before I say anything else, I'd just like to warn potential buyers that Movie Studio 9 does not do Bezier masking. In other words, you can't cut out one person and put them on a different background unless you use a predefined shape, like a square, circle, etc. If you want Bezier masking and you still want Vegas, then you need to get Vegas Pro. br / br /Otherwise, the product is great. The tutorials are very useful, especially for beginners. There is an amazing number of effects and transitions, especially when compared to Windows Movie Maker. It's great for home movie creation. br / br /I'd say if you're considering it, definitely give it a shot. Sony has free trials on their website, so you really have nothing to lose. Their knowledgebase is pretty extensive and if you can't find the answer to your question, you can always contact their customer service. They give useful answers fairly promptly.
Really Nice ..but has a few frustrating things to it December 29, 2008
The Circumspect Shopper (Secaucus, NJ)
First of - I am an amateur .. I needed to make a small movie to be shown at my parents-in-law's wedding anniversary using raw footage and old snaps ..I decided to use this after playing with Moviemaker, Primiere elements and Vegas .. I still have the trial version .. and am close to finishing my project .. So I am not an expert user - but have figured out quite a bit. br / br /It has a really lots of features .. dedicated volume and panning envelopes for each of the 4 audio tracks - really helps in mixing up tracks .. The software also automatically loaded up all my VST effects that I have for my Music workstation software ... br / br /The video event panning and zoom control is simply too good .. You can do so much with your stills ...make them literally spring to life .. there are many high quality transitions included that you will not find in Windows movie maker ( especially the double blur crossover) which give your movie a nice professional touch. br / br /Media Bins are definite plus - Better way to organize than anything I have seen. br / br /Now for the irritating points: br / br /There is no easy way to order snaps/ clips in the media bin .. even free software Picasa supports drag drop operations to sequence the snaps the way you want ... Ordering snaps in the timeline is too much of a pain.. I would love if Sony would let us use the Media Bin as a staging area rather than just a place to dump related artifacts. br / br /The Trimmer can definitely improved upon.. right now you can select portions of the clip you would like to include ... but on trying to re-trim the clip ..you are back to square one with the Original clip instead on simply having to trim portions of your current clip. .. This wastes my time ... and does irritate me ... br / br /Overall- it is a nice product -- surely worth a shot.
I've made some nice DVDs September 18, 2008

I have owned this software for about two weeks. My only prior experience with video editing is Movie Maker and InterVideo WinDVD. I was originally going to purchase Sony Vegas Movie Studio 8 but then I noticed this version was just released and it has some new features. br / br /After some initial frustration I am happy with the purchase. The learning curve is what is so frustrating especially for a novice like me. I made two coasters (though I admit that was really my fault) and at one point I was considering trying to return it for a refund because I was getting so stressed. I still get frustrated with the fact that you have to use two separate programs: Vegas Movie Studio 9 to make the movie and DVD Architect 4.5 (included) to make the menus and author the disc. br / br /Now that I've been playing with it every day for two weeks, things are better now. It just takes hours and hours of working with the software which in turn makes the user more familiar with how to navigate through it and achieve a desirable result. No more stress. Now that I have made a couple of DVDs successfully I have a whole new appreciation of Sony Vegas. They turned out great! My movies have a beautiful 16:9 widescreen representation, great audio, decent menus, good video FX, and I've had a blast customizing them. The "Show Me How" tutorial is a lifesaver, but it has its limits. br / br /I have experienced no crashes or anything even close to a crash. I'm using a 3-year-old HP Media Center desktop PC, running Windows XP, with Pentium 4 processor, and 2GB of RAM. I give it 4 stars because of the huge amount of information that is presented at first and the trouble it can cause a newbie and I think the average user is not going to use a lot of the advanced features.
