    I want to start editing wedding videos. What system should I use? Mac with FCP or PC with adobe Premiere pro? Money is not an issue. Any tips or suggestions?

    Money is not an issue, but is your budget $ 500K+, $ 100K+ or what is it?

    There are lots of choices, but if you ask in Premiere Pro foeum like you did, you might expect that we will tell you to learn to use the entire Adobe CS3 Production Premium.

    Get lots of training and with the entire suite you can do just about anything you might ever possibly think of. Seriously, spend money on training, regardless of which platform you choose.

    A bigger issue might be : what are you shooting with?
    Some formats don’t play well with PPro.

    If you are planning to do editing for living then go with Avid/Apple.
    There are not may editing jobs offered for Premier as compare to other two unfortunately… However for wedding Ppro is more then sufficient.

    Sorry guys just switched my user name to Q1978 to wedding_guy. My Budget will be no more than $10,000. I heard that premiere pro with the matrox axio card most of the effects are realtime so no need to render compared to FCP when you need to render some effects. So if we are talking about saving time woudln’t the PPro with matrox axio card on a PC be better than FCP on apple?

    thanks a million
