I've read some of the other threads, but some of the prices of video editing software have changed/gone up, so I wanted to get the newest info I could.
I was using Windows Movie Maker while I was doing videos with my Canon PowerShot A620 camera, but I can no longer use that since Cat'r got me the Flip UltraHD camera. The Canon saved raw video as .avi files; the Flip UltraHD saves raw video in MP4 format. WMM won't take that.
So I am looking for video editing software (FlipShare is rudimentary and sucky) for under $100. What I want to be able to do is grey and sepia tone and other video effects (like old/grainy/etc), do fade ins and fade outs, have nicer-looking title screens than what FlipShare can do, add audio tracks (I have Audacity, but still am fumbling around in that). I am not at the point where I feel I can do split-screen or multiple Mousies.
The two that I was looking at (from previous recommendations) are Multiquence Multitrack Mixer ($50) and Vegas Movie Studio ($90). I have a feeling I'm going to have to buy a microphone at some point, and I don't know how much that's going to run me/if we can afford it.
So: comments, suggestions on affordable video editing software? Thanks in advance!
P.S. Too many wingdings might confuse me, so simpler user interface would be better for me.
MODS: If this is in the wrong forum, please move. Thanks!
