Review by Matt Hausig

This video editing software offers several improvements over the prior version but still comes up a bit short. Key among the improvements are 64 bit operation and support for 3D and 4K video. This is complex software and the learning curve can be quite steep. The UI feels a bit less intuitive than Premiere and can slow down at times. There are tons and tons of effects and transitions included, although a good percentage of them, including the more technically advanced ones don’t look very good. Overall, this is a good pick for moving beyond entry level software if the Adobe pricing model is not attractive to you.
