  • Minor support for 1080p.
  • No native support for AVCHD and transcoding facilities (AIC) limited to files from attached cameras only
  • No complete list of input file types.
  • No support for 24 frame/s timeline.
  • No upgrade since August 2008.
  • MP3 (and other sound files) have to be rendered manually in order to show up, otherwise a 1000 Hz beep will repeat.
  • No means of changing the default overwrite edit, which easily results in inadvertent deletion of clips and track material on the Timeline

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:

    “To be just, that is to say, to justify its existence, criticism should be partial, passionate and political, that is to say, written from an exclusive point of view, but a point of view that opens up the widest horizons.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “The visual is sorely undervalued in modern scholarship. Art history has attained only a fraction of the conceptual sophistication of literary criticism.... Drunk with self-love, criticism has hugely overestimated the centrality of language to western culture. It has failed to see the electrifying sign language of images.”
    —Camille Paglia (b. 1947)

    “Good criticism is very rare and always precious.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
