With the release of Final Cut Pro X, everything changed and many editors accustomed to the traditional interface are having a hard time adjusting. In order to help you see some of the differences between version 7 and X, we've created this screencast to show you where some functions have moved to, what's new and what's been discarded. It's obviously not a complete list but it should hopefully give you an idea of what to expect if you decide to make the jump to Apple's current vision of video editing on the Mac.

Some parts are definitely better - as I hope the video clearly showed.
In fact, Apple granted nearly all of my wishes... I hadn't realised though that there would have been such a high price to pay in terms of lost features and functionality to get all the cool stuff.
I can cope with most of it, but I really want my timeline back! :(
