Premier vs. HD Pro (Ease of use/learning curve)

[jmyers]

I have recently purchased HD Pro and have made great strides in learning the software.  Obviously, I have a long way to go, but I have progressed significantly since first purchasing.

 

For users who have used both Premier and HD Pro, I have a few questions regarding the ease of use between the two.  When comparing the products, it's very to easy to see that Premier has much greater capabilities and options.

 

With that understanding, how difficult is Premier to learn in comparison to HD Pro?  Is the learning curve much steeper?  Is Premier much more difficult to use, due to the advancements and capabilities?

 

Thanks to all who respond!

HD PRO is Premier lite - about 20% of the tools and features

 

what you learn for HD PRO will work for Premier

but Premier has so much more

 

so yes the learning curve is "bigger" and maybe even "harder"

due to the extra features

 

since Hd PRO has many of the same manual tools following the ChiefTalk forum can be of benefit

just understand the limitations of PRO and when posting on Chieftalk be aware that some solutions may not apply to PRO

 

CA does give 100% credit towards upgrade to Premier when you decide you need it
