new to vegas
I recently bought my first hd sony handy cam. I am new to the editing world. With previous success, I felt comfortable purchasing pinnacle studio 10 for my hd editing needs. Well, it turns out that pinnacle was just desperate to stake claim on HD editing capabilities. What sony product would you recommend for editing and exporting in HD. I don’t mind purchasing a blue ray burner. Thank you!!

Editing systems are very much a personal choice; what works great for one may be a miserable chore for another.
Also, HDV editing is in its infancy and almost every editing system out there has quirks, workarounds, and headaches in dealing with it.
Finally, blu-ray burners aren’t out there yet…or at least, not in any great numbers and affordability, so don’t worry about that just yet. Shoot and edit HDV, burn and deliver on standard definition DVD.
Having said that, many people find Sony Vegas to be relatively simple, intuitive, and powerful. With a fast computer, it can handle HDV as well as any non-hardware-accelerated editing system. You can download a free trial version and see if you like it before purchase.
