Hi all,
I've got questions about editing software. The camera I bought is Canon HF10, I'm trying out a trial version of Sony Vegas Pro 9, and I'm running it all on my Dell Inspiron 1545.
Windows 7 home premium
Pentium(R) Dual Core CPU T4200 @ 2.0Ghz
2gigs of Ram
32-bit operating system
Here is the problem, and I would appreciate any help. I've just been shooting test footage so that I can get a hang of the camera and technique, and also learn to use the editor. I saved a 1 minute clip to my hd, simple edit in Vegas just to play around, and the preview was jerky. I figured it would clear out when I rendered it. Well it took 30 minutes to render that 1 minute clip! After rendering the clip went from 140mb to 7+gigs. Surely my machine isn't that weak? I'm obviously doing something wrong, but I have no idea.
Thanks for any help you can give (you guys have been a wealth of knowledge so far).
So any thoughts, or recommendations for less resource intensive editors.
