FCE is more of a traditional video editor. It requires more knowledge to catch on, and it can do more in terms of editing, but less in terms of creating DVDs and such. However, what bugs me with FCE4 is the fact that it does not support full HD (won't deal with 1920x1080, but only up to 1440x1080 w/ PAR 1.333), and it doesn't support 24p timelines at all. For me, these two problems are a deal breaker as my HV20 supports true 24p (after I remove pulldown) and I want to be able to export in full HD progressive and de-interlaced for my friends with 1080p HDTVs and PS3s (yes, I have such friends ;) ).

Thanks for the reply. Are the gripes you have with Final Cut Express fixed in Final Cut Pro? I'm interested in dabbling with video and iMovie can only take you so far.

Yes, Final Cut Studio and After Effects don't not have these limitations. But you need over $1200 to buy these, when Vegas Platinum costs $120 on a PC.
