This is something Premiere Elements added a couple of versions ago. Import provides an all-new option as well: Stop Motion.
Now all these are integrated, so you can import clips from disparate sources to the same location. Import has the ability to bring in footage from camcorders that use hard disks and Flash memory for storage, in addition to the usual tools for capturing from webcams and tape-based models over FireWire. This leads to an entirely new utility, aimed more at current camcorders than the previous capture facility. One area that has seen significant change is the Capture tab, which has been replaced by Import. But the redesign has made everything look cleaner and more contemporary. It’s more of a visual than a functional change, though: all the main tabs and buttons are in the same place. First up is the interface, which Pinnacle says has been streamlined. That appears to be the case with Pinnacle Studio, which has leapt from version 12 to version 14.Īlas, there aren’t two versions’ worth of updates here, but Pinnacle has found a few important features to add and improve. The number after 12 is usually 13, but in some parts of the world superstition means it’s often omitted.
