5.0 out of 5 stars Visual and Quick

I first bought the FCP 7 book. It was too specific to the lessons in the book and not enough info about actualy learning FCP any way other than step by step with the enclosed dvd. This book, and a couple others like it, are the way to go. One can jump around and search for answers as the questions come up. There is a note in the book regrding some info had to be made available on the web as the book length was at capacity. I did not know there was a limit to book length, I would prefer to have ALL info in the book, that is why I bought it. Again, this is the way to go... the fcp 7 official book is simply a little hard to read and too limited.

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes FCP 7 simple to learn
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 December 2010

I have been using Final Cut Pro for 10 months with the on line manual (2000 pages) and am still working my way through the pages. I have now downloaded the PDF version from apples web site which is much better to work from as all the pages are numbered. This book however has 651 pages and is not going to cover every detail of FCP like the manual but at a quick glance it does give enough easily digestible information to keep you editing without spending hours and hours reading. This book contains a lot of useful tips about FCP that help speed up the editing workflow. For £13 it has to be a must to keep by the computer as a quick reference. FCP is a very professional and somewhat complicated editing programme to understand at first, but this book combined with the download PDF version of the apple manual work very well together at simplifying everything. It's so easy to read this book that you can soon flip through it without even trying. My only gripe is that none of the illustrations are in colour. All in all, I'm very glad I spent my money on this book.

Can't say anything about the book itself, as I haven't started reading (yet), but delivery was prompt and even though it's second hand it looks like new. Thanks!

This book has saved me numerous times when a random question arrises (usually about 230am on a deadline). For beginners, or if you're rusty, this book will guide you beautifully through all of your FCP questions. I'm sure you can find all the answers by digging around on line, but I'm glad to not have to separate the wheat from the chaff and just get the ANSWER I'm looking for.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great guide for beginners and pros!

I have to admit that I was very impressed by the amount of information in this book, yet how easy it was to find exactly what I was looking for. As an intermediate editor, this book was a great resource that covered the basics as well as some things I had never tried before. While serious editors may want to lean toward the official guide by Apple, this is a great resource for those of us who just want a quick reference book for sticky situations, or just want to expand their knowledge without Apple certification.
