I've posted on this a few months ago. At the time I was blaming it on my cheap software. So for Christmas my wife bought me ULEAD Video Studio 9 and I also have Pinnacle 9 SE.

Optura 60?

I must completely disagree with the GS-150 choice. I purchased my Optura 60 for right about $600 after rebates, and I'd take this camera 10 times over the 150 every day of the week.
