DSLR Video Editing

[mouks]

Any of you guys do videos with your DSLR's?

- Any paid/free software recommendations for editing videos with video stabilization option.

I don't do video with the DSLR, I use the handycam for that.
I use Adobe Premiere Pro, all the free/other tools suck and require a lot more work

I use iMovie… I've got final cut but IMovie has always done what I needed it it do.

For basic editing, I like KDEnlive. Native to Linux, but may be available for Windows. If you just want to take it for a spin you can try the VirtualBox images (https://kdenlive.org/user-manual/downloading-and-installing-kdenlive/virtualbox-images).

On Windows there is VirtualDub. I am not crazy about it, but it has a pretty decent stabilization plugin called Deshaker (http://www.guthspot.se/video/deshaker.htm).

I have not really gone looking for newer/better tools in the last three years, so keep in mind that my recommendations may be somewhat dated.

Thanks. Will check them out over the weekend.

Premiere Pro or Final Cut?

As to why I use Premiere:

1) It makes the job easy
2) It has presets, for encoding, without these it would be a case of trial and error, especially for Youtube
3) It is powerful
4) It can accept everything from a crappy camera. My beloved Samsung camera was stolen and the insurance replaced with with a Panasonic, that saves the files in a VERY ODD format, and with Dolby crap... it accepts that, where other programs crash dead because of the AC-3
