Review: Fills the bill - As a very experienced Final Cut Pro 7 editor I was totally flummoxed at trying to make use of FCP X. I would have just ignored it except that the totally rewritten version has tremendous upsides when it comes to mixing video formats, raw speed and other "under the hood" type things. This book, which I downloaded in digital form has been a Godsend in understanding X. It's not hard to learn, but it's not all that intuitive and you really need a book like this to ease the transition.
Review: Not the best way to train - for me - I appreciate the author, he has all the information and resources down, but the method for training leaves me short. To just read a book and learn it in a technical manual is difficult. I much prefer the method of having working files and following the procedures along with the lessons, I think you learn better. I think this book will come in more useful after I have learned the methods and plan to return to this later after I better understand the changes. I have worked with most versions of FCP for almost ten years, this is a different animal and I felt I needed to train. I just don't think this the best method to quickly learn, better for later. This is not to say it is not a great book written by a well informed person, just the wrong way for early training. I am glad I have this, I hope that is understood. FYI, I have the IPad versions and that is a wonderful way to train, sitting right next to the computer. as good as any book - better. I also bought the Peachpit training system AND this too. I will use the Peachpit (Apple Training Method) first and then back to this, Both are IPad books as well as traditional - either works. LATER UPDATE: Actually the Peachpit training book was old and so far in behind in versions that I threw it out and bought The Focal Easy Guide to Final Cut Pro X [Paperback], Rick Young (Author). This was a great book, pretty current, came with web updates and web videos by Rick Young that are just terrific! THIS IS THE BEST BOOK GOING, in my opinion. Get up to speed in just a few sessions! http://www.desertcart.com/gp/product/0240523830/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Final Cut Pro X: Making the Transition
*by E***W on May 20, 2012*

This is a good quality book in every way, which is reflected in the price. Still, I highly recommend the book for experienced FCP editors needing a handy reference book for the new platform. As the title suggests, the book will be most helpful during the transition. Still, expect to put in your time with X.
