Got a question here... I know you all may be a bit biased but I want honest feedback....
Can I do the same, more or less with Final Cut Express compared to Premier Pro CS4.
Any thoughts on this?
I have CS4, will have Final Express as soon as the new imac arrives and just thinking ahead here. Am using it for a job. I know FCE but know nothing about CS4.

HI
I use windows plateform and for Editing I have been using premiere pro 2. Many of my friends tell that Final Cut Pro is better than Premiere pro. In fact I was planning to upgrade to Premiere pro CS4. Please some one guide me should I go for final cut or primere pro CS4. In case I shift to final cut I shall have to switch to MAC.

This is a loaded question to be sure and you'll get biases of both on their respective forums.
A more appropriate comparison would be Premiere Pro vs Final Cut Pro or Production Premium vs Final Cut Studio
That being said, here would be my net conclusions. 1 - You can try 30 day trials of both probably and you should give them both a fair evaluation. 2 - You should use what works best for you. 3 - If you're doing any pro work, chances are you'll be using Adobe products anyway, so you could end up with Premiere Pro if you use Final Cut Pro/Express anyway. If budgets are tight, the advantage is for Premiere because you'll probably use Photoshop and After Effects anyway.
