Worth the money
The best feature about Adobe Premiere Elements 4 is the audio adjustment capability. There must be at least six different ways to adjust the audio levels... when recording narration, over the whole track, over the individual clip, in the mixer, adjusting the gain, etc. I purchased this product because I couldn't balance the narration levels and music levels appropriately in Windows Movie Maker. Premiere did an excellent job in this area. The tool is nicely organized and cleanly displayed. The only downside for me was the menu templates. I found them rather unattractive and much less professional looking than the ones in Windows Movie Maker.

Premiere Elements 4
We purchased this product for our grandson's birthday. He says this software is just great, especially for the price. He is a novice movie maker and is thrilled with the capabilities available with this product.

My favorite video editing program
I've used pinnacle studios and Adobe premier (old version) and version 4. Version 4 is wonderful, easy to use, and very reliable! Finding a camera to be compatible with the format premier needs was difficult, but stick with HDV and you will have no problem! I just filmed my cousins wedding and had the entire 2 hours of video edited in about 3 hours! The program has built in HD themes and really dressed up the video nicely~
My favorite editing program to date!
If you are a youtuber, this program is a must have! It converts and uploads directly to youtube!

Adobe Premiere Elements 4
This is a fairly powerful video editing program for less than $100. It's very useful for video archiving projects and such. However, for a software that seems aimed at the "video editing beginner", rather than an advanced user, I encountered a lot of glitches. I would think it would be more important to have less glitches in a "beginner-level" product because those users might not necessarily have the knowledge to figure out what's wrong or seek out answers. I was able to work around or figure out pretty much all of the problems I encountered, but I had to do a lot of research on Adobe's forums and a lot of time-consuming troubleshooting (such as rendering dozens of clips in a project separately to figure out what was causing transcoding errors...). I would say that I wouldn't recommend this for beginners, but I don't have any experience with competing programs of this type; maybe they're as bad or worse. I purchased this because I've always loved Photoshop and I couldn't afford the "Pro" version of Premiere. It has done what I've wanted it to do so far, but it has also wasted a lot of my time. All that being said, I'll probably be getting the "Pro" version soon...

Crash, Crash & Crash
I used PE4 to create some training videos for my company. It froze up many times during editing and very often crashed during the convert to file portion. In other words you'll wind up with a project file that you can't use for anything. I created 4 videos, the three shorter ones (under 5 minutes) converted fine. A 15 minute video with many scenes, transitions and effects is now held hostage in my computer. I spent over a week on it and luckilly got one good burn of the file off before all hell broke loose. Now the file can't be burned to any format or edited. It crashes at every attempt. I gave it two stars only because 3 of my videos came out great. If it doesn't crash it works great but IT WILL CRASH.
