New FCP User

I am new to FCP. I actually got FInal Cut Pro 5, but since FCP 5 books are scarce as of July '05, I decided to buy the HD version instead. No problem there, as everything that worked in FCP HD works in FCP 5.

I have to say that this book is great for anybody wanting to learn FCP. It doesn't assume you are an expert, but you don't get the feeling that you are being talked down to, either. The videos on the DVD are great for visualizing what Larry is talking about. The lesson files are key in understanding the concepts as you go through the chapters. I am a newbie coming from iMovie and this book got me to change many things in my digital lifestyle workflow. Now, someone needs to write a DVD Studio Pro H-O-T book!
