yeah been getting into video editing, mainly passing the time at work and going through previous untouched camcorder video from years gone by, at present im using windows movie maker, which im sure is not the best, so any recommendations free or at cost

Sony Vegas is pretty good, but a lot of the time I just use movie maker. It does the simple things well.

I've used Premiere Elements in the past, but the latest Movie Maker is actually pretty good, I use it for all of my (limited) video editing needs now.

oh ok maybe i should just stick with it, very simple and happy with my results, i just presumed it would be a bit naff in comparsion terms, but it does ok

I found Vegas (not the pro version) did everything I needed. Much better then Movie Maker and had more features then Serif Movie Plus X3 (which is still a lot better then Movie Maker).

Pinnacle is a VERy good balance between ease of use and quality.
