Final Results And Overall Mark  

Well we have reached the end of the review. Here are my final comments, notes and grades for Pinnacle Systems Studio Deluxe.

Final Comments

The Pinnacle Studio Deluxe solution is simply amazing... With this versatile package consumers have everything they need, right out of the box, to seamlessly capture, edit and output analogue and digital videos painlessly. Supporting both AV and DV standards the Studio Deluxe is extremely appealing. It lets DV camcorder users export their production on analog tapes for the broadest compatibility and insert into their digital production scenes from old analogue archive while owners of analogue video devices will be able to backup their video collection on CD-Rom or DVD-Rom. On the hardware side, the Studio Deluxe board is an excellent professional card with evolutive features that might be exploited by future Pinnacle driver/software releases. The software Pinnacle has chosen to include are extremely simple and yet powerful making the process of capturing, editing, outputing videos and authoring DVDs a child’s game. Agressively priced and targeting both home video makers and semi-professional users, the Pinnacle Studio Deluxe is highly recommended for everyone on the look for a complete video solution.
