I have 3 editing suites to play with

Adobe premier elements
Wondershare Flimora12
Movavi video editor plus 2022

It all depends on which file format I use as to which editing suit. each has its plus and minus fetures so Ioften have to use more than one
.

Rrecently been playing using 6 screens at once , here the main issue I still have to work on video lengths as shown below. Also work on video picture quality so they match up in contrast brightnes etc. just the first effort

I use DaVinci Resolve now and it is also certainly worth a look.

Had FCP 7 but like many others didn't go to FCP X when it came out.

I'm also on DaVinci Resolve 18, went to it about version 12 and haven't looked back.

George, same here. Had been using Resolve for grading a few versions earlier but went to it for editing, clunky as it was at v11, but have stuck with it to the present. Would feel quite naked now if I didn't have Resolve in my toolkit. It has matured in v18 into a very powerful NLE. It really is my mainstream editing/grading package these days. And color matching shots is one of its strengths.

Chris Young.

Yeah Chris is was a bit clunky from what I was used to and a bit of a learning curve, at least for me, but once I decided to stick with it, it started making sense and just got better and better. I really committed to it in version 15 when I went with the Studio version. Hope Barry will at least look at the public version.

yes I have heard of that program and evereyone says it is very good. The thing is I already have paid for editing suites which do everything I need to do and more. I listed them in the first post. What one doesn't do I can move the project onto one of the others. Adobe premier elements is ok for what it is but the other two are way better with many options between them.
Just been playing with zoom in/out/up/down and dealing with very slow motion on one of them

So thank you for the suggestion but for me at the moment that one is not necessary

this is not very clear but shows what am playing with ie slow zoom in and slow zoom out using Movavi video editor plus 2022. a really great editing suite

Barry looks like you are having fun, keep experimenting and good editing to you.

yes I am thank you.
So far on my youtube channel my most successful is this one with around 193.500 views. The pleasure I get from posting them is seeing other enjoying them as well

Da Vinci Resolve is free and excellent too, I just got the version 18.5 upgrade.

I'm on 18.1.4. Messed with the 18.5 beta and then downloaded the certified release twice each time failing near the end. I'm on a wireless network and need a few more days for the new allotment to try again. By that time the server also will not be hammered as much. It just keeps getting better and better and way beyond my needs, but it is so easy to use while at the same time some real powerful stuff.

What's even better is that you get a lifetime license with the Studio version, I paid only 325euro for the studio version more then 4 years ago and every major update since then has been free of charge. As far as I know the free version doesn't have GPU acceleration which makes a huge difference when dealing with demanding codecs, that alone makes investing in paid version a no brainer.
