Sounds like he's backed off more than just a bit. It will be exiting to see what a bunch of amateurs who could never justify Final Cut Studio (or for that matter have the time/patience to learn to use the thing) will produce with FCP X. And of course the pros just might do some great work as well.Originally Posted by Sam Posten

The Mrs. is already complaining is that it is too big (it was supposed to be an easy to carry alternative to our old Canon SLR), so no larger sensor was in the cards, but from what I read, it has a bigger sensor than the "micro 4/3s" format cameras, so it can't be too bad. I just did some low light photography and the results are fantastic. Looking forward to some concert photography.Originally Posted by Sam Posten
Grats on the new cam! Problem with the nex5 is that it's an awful small sensor, going wide is going to be tough and expensive! Great little cam tho, incredible IQ if you can get passed the funky ui.
That stinks and may cause a problem for us on some of our systems. Now I have to go check. Blah.Originally Posted by Sam Posten

Because we have an Apple licensing program, I wasn't able to get it and start playing with it today. That makes sense...
I ended up installing an AVID install instead. It's about as far as you can to the other end of the editing software spectrum.
