Can I save a few $$$ by getting version 13 of PowerDirector Ultimate? Or do I need version 14?
Or neither...
I know, penny wise, pound foolish, but for the foreseeable future I only need something pretty basic.
- 1080p at 24fps
- basic trimming and joingin tracks
- basic titling
- basic audio tracks (right now, just a music track with no voice over, but possibly in the future, music plus voice over)
- color grading
- simple (or simple-ish) to use
However, GOOD stabilization would be worth paying a premium for.
And does version 13 ulimate have lens correction for common DSLR lenses? (One of my lenses has some moustache distortion if uncorrected).
I shoot real estate videos. Most shots will be from a tripod. But I will be doing SOME (about 25%) of my shots handheld from a DIY steadycam (Home Depot, $15 DIY job), or a DIY shoulder rig, where I will be walking through a house.
Most of what I need to do can be accomplished with something like windows movie maker (except color grading, and stabilization)
Here's what I shoot with:
Nikon D7000
Sigma 17-50 f/2.8 OS (Optical Stabilized) lens
DIY Steadicam / shoulder rig
Here's my computer hardware:
i7-3770 @ 3.4 GHz (the NON K version, so not easily overclocked)
Intel HD Graphics 4000
16 GB DDR3
Win 7 64-bit
Thanks in advance.
and yes, I am on a tight budget now. Thanks!
