Anybody else using Go Pro Studio for their video editing ?

I haven't invested in any fancy video editing software YET ! At the moment I'm just using the software that I use for my GoPro and I'm just wondering if anybody else uses it and if so what do you think of it ?

It's fairly basic but dead easy to use which suits me, maybe I'm missing out by not getting something like Final cut.

I haven't used the gopro studio but have used amateur programs like I Movie.
Personally i think unless you a pro or need the extra features of FCP then these "lesser" programs are fine and often quicker to use.
Im a pro photographer and run a studio with about 5 staff. One shoots events and uses imovie for its simplicity . It does everything she wants. The above can be said of photoshop also and cameras in general. Just because its pro doesn't mean its the best for you.

I use GoPro Studio and I'm pretty pleased with the results so far.

Thanks for the replies. Yes iMovie is OK but unfortunately if you shoot a 4k clip after editing you can only export it in 1080

Am I missing something? I attempted to use the GoPro Studio editor, but it barked at me saying it was only capable of using videos taken by a gopro. Is there a way around this I'm not aware of?

The application won't allow you to trim clips prior to conversion unless they're GoPro. However, you can still import/convert clips and then trim them during the editing process. For large clips, it may take a little longer to convert.

I use the gopro studio sometimes. I had some footage I needed to slow down and "smooth". The GoPro flux option and " Shakey Video" fix in iMovie did quite a nice job.
