make nice DVD's, or are there some important features that FCP brings to the<BR>
table. For example, if FCP will give more scene selections, sharpen, lighten<BR>
or darken bad footage, much like Photoshop will do with pictures, that might<BR>
make the extra cost and time, worth it.<BR>

I purchased a Canopus 300 that converts both analog to digital as well as digital to analog. It also enhances bad video as Photoshop does with photos. The converter is a bit cheaper that FCP and does more (in my opinion) with regard to analog video enhancement.</FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Geneva" FAMILY="SANSSERIF" SIZE="2"></FONT></HTML>
