They did make a huge mistake with Final Cut Pro X. Professionals continued to use Final Cut Pro 7 until just a few years ago.
That said, everyone I hear who uses Final Cut Pro today seems to prefer it over any other editor. You can flawlessly edit multiple 4k color corrected video streams on an $800 fanless MacBook Air with 8GB RAM, and get 10+ hours of battery life while doing it. Nobody else can touch that.
- geerlingguy 4y agoYeah, FCPX had massive growing pains but after a few years, it has matured to be eons better for a modern editing workflow than FCP7. It's sad they had to take so long to get there, a number of people switched to Premiere during that time, but there are still a huge number of individuals and studios who edit on FCPX today.
- dmitriid 4y agoThe main criminal thing they did IMO is offering no upgrade path, at all until very late. IIRC you couldn't even import FCP7 projects for two years or so after FCPX release.
