Some years ago I was using Ulead Media Studio Pro for a large number of videos. Thereafter Premiere Pro for some time. This summer I edited a number of short videos in Avid Xpress Pro. It not a product you learn from scratch just by using it. I went through some of the instruction videos at Avids website. They are very good and quite instructive. After watching the videos, using Xpress for editing was quite straightforward. The most pleasant experence is that Xpress is based on a very good and powerful conceptual model of video editing. The concepts like: Projects, bins, clips, sequences, settings, effects etc are defined just as I feel that they should be for large projects. In addition to using mouse, you kan work very efficiently with keyboard commands. Somehow I just like editing with this stuff. It also does color correction very well. I have used it for edits in SD format. On my PC (P4 2.8Gh 1.5GB) this runs very smoothly. One reason for the smooth operation is probably that it uses the .MXF file format for media files. Media files can be exported as .mov or .AVI to applictions not reading MXF. My version does not produce MPEG-2 files for DVD. I export the finished edit as MOV-file (in source DV compression) and use TMPGenc for encoding. The price is steep however, unless you are entitled to an eductional version.

Avid Xpress DV I would concider to be on par with Vegas Video and Premiere Pro. Avid Xpress Pro not even listed on this site is as elite as far as advanced NLE applications are concerned. Only dedicated prosumers and professionals looking for something more advanced then the editors mentioned in the above paragraph should enter this steep of a learning curve.
