Finally got around to upgrading from 3.62 to the current Edius and am very happy I did.
I love the new GUI - looks pretty slick to me - very clean.
And for day-in and day-out work 4.61 kicks FCP.
Examples:
-FCP seems to require so much rendering even for simple stuff - 4.61 rarely
-FCP capture of HDV via firewire - clunky; same HDV footage in 4.61, the deck control seems far superior.
Thoughts of someone who waited too long to upgrade their Edius FWIW.
