Premiere Pro CS5
Adobe® Premiere® Pro CS5 software offers breakthrough performance for video production, enabling you to work dramatically faster thanks to the revolutionary native 64-bit, GPU-accelerated Adobe Mercury Playback Engine. Work natively with the video formats you want and accelerate production from scriptwriting to editing, encoding, and final delivery.
Tap the power of tapeless workflows:
Save time with industry-leading native tapeless workflows, which eliminate transcoding and rewrapping, while preserving the pristine quality of your footage. Capture and log footage from virtually any camera — including tapeless cameras — with Adobe OnLocation™ CS5.
Move faster from script to screen:
Move from script to screen faster with Adobe Story, a new Adobe CS Live online service* that integrates with Adobe Premiere Pro. Import scripts from Adobe Story to create shot lists, align scripts to footage and produce rough cuts, and then optimize video to create engaging online experiences. CS Live services are complimentary for a limited time.
Work better with other NLEs:
Import and export Apple Final Cut Pro and Avid projects in Adobe Premiere Pro so you can explore new possibilities with After Effects®, Photoshop®, and other Adobe software, bringing timesaving integration between Adobe tools to projects created in these other NLEs.
- Fixes issues which prevent the proper display of closed captions and the timecode effect.
- Fixes the color picker on Mac OS X 10.7 Lion and an issue where the program monitor would go black when using trim preview and a 3rd party I/O card plugin.
Reviews
The Adobe CS5 Production Suite has been running circles around FCP for me lately. And after using it on a fully loaded machine with a Quadro card, it has sealed the deal. 4k Red Native, Effects, Loading After effects comps, adjusting audio with sound booth. No need to export out any comps or audio files it was all just linked together seamlessly.
Impossible to use other apps instead of CS4...
Photoshop if for me, next to FCP the application I use the most






I purchased the Production Premium 5.5. There is a lot to like about the package without considering PP. Encore and the Media Encoder are worth the price. I use them constantly. PP works really well even without the approved video cards (Radeon 5770). It won't capture HDV without audio sync issues which is not a problem for me because I capture with a Matrox Mini MXO 2, but is odd. The same system captures HDV perfectly with FCP 7.
