Video Editing LaptopsVideo editing laptops are a very specialized kind of laptop, which tend to come with special integrated hardware and cost upwards of thirty thousand dollars for fully integrated packages, but they don't need to cost that much. There are other options. Here are some ideas to help you choose the best laptops for video editing, with an eye towards the greatest possible cost effectiveness.The very best among video editing laptops are professional systems that have video editing decks attached, but these are so expensive that if you are on any kind of a budget production, you are not going to have much luck with these unless you can find a good rental place. Video editing laptops are usually dedicated solely to video editing. As video editing is an intensive process, not only on the video editing hardware, but the cpu and memory of the laptop computer, it is generally impossible to run other applications at the same time as you are doing video editing. However, video editing laptops can be made from ordinary laptops if they are equipped with the right hardware. Possible video editing laptop brands include the latest Apple iBooks, IBM Thinkpads, or Sony Vaios. Make sure that the video editing laptop you buy has a Firewire connector that you can use to attach to your digital video camcorder. As long as you have the right connector to plug your digital video camcorder to the laptop, all you really need is a suite of video editing software that will run on your video editing laptop's hardware. One popular suite of video editing software is Avid's well known Avid XPress DV, but this is quite expensive, costing about seventeen hundred dollars. Adobe Premiere 6.0 can be had for about five hundred and fifty dollars, and has practically all the features you may need if all you have to do is perform quick test editing in the field. Its inexpensiveness makes it a popular choice among budget conscious film directors. If you are looking for photo editing laptops, your job is significantly simpler, as a wide range of photo editing software, most popularly Adobe Photoshop, is available for any kind of laptop and works on a wide variety of hardware. Good luck finding a technical solution for your mobile video editing needs!
