 Good for typical users and beginners. December 3, 2008
The Taminator (The Other Side of the Mirror)
I have never edited video before in my life, nor have I researched any video editing programs. With half my brain tied behind my back, leaving the software manual completely sealed-- and nothing up my sleeve-- I installed this program and made my first video in one afternoon. One reason that I picked this up so quickly is that I have used graphics and 3D programs for years, and I have a good instinct for where to find the functions I want. If you need software that will do everything for you, this isn't a good choice. If you're willing to roll up your sleeves and work a little, you can make great, professional-looking videos with Premiere Elements.
The program took a long time to install-- so long that I had to step away from it several times, AND it required a restart. On some machines the program will lag, and if you're running on Vista you already have a hateful relationship with that stupid little circle that goes round and round forever. It didn't crash, but a couple of times I thought it would. I would advise Windows users to exceed the minimum requirements for operation, and run it on XP if you can.
Nearly everything is drag and drop. The challenge sometimes is finding what you want to drag, whether it's a certain transition, or changing text. I've never found Adobe interfaces to be particularly intuitive, and this one is no exception. What's obvious to Adobe and experienced users is not so cut and dry for beginners. This is what makes Help so important. The online-only Help is inexcusable. As easy as the program is, at some point you'll have to check Help for SOMEthing, but if you have no internet connection you're out of luck. It was also slow, and didn't link keywords and phrases like even some of the most basic programs I've had. I don't understand the apparent lack of MP4 support, either. MP4 imports are hopelessly out of sync about half the time, with no apparent way to fix it.
But what about results? I've got some slick videos for my family, and it didn't take me any time at all to do them. I've got music, transitions, credits, titles, and it was a lot easier than taping together pieces of film. This is a good product for a beginner who typically has a shorter learning curve on computers in general, or an intermediate user who is new to Premiere Elements, or not upgrading from 4.

I am running Win XP Pro SP3 and this package refused to run.
It installed, but crashed within seconds after starting a video file.
$90 wasted i guess. :(

Best movie software for the price November 30, 2008
Taper Jim (Sacramento, CA USA)
If you need more video editing capabilities than the standard types of movie making programs that come with computers provide, then this product is for you. It also creates the automatic type movies, but for me its real beauty is allowing to overlay multiple videos and produce professional looking movies. I have only limited movie making experience but have been very satisfied with what I can do so far. There are many features that I am not even yet familiar with. The one disappointment for me is the DVD authoring is not as robust as I would have hoped for, in fact it seems so limited that I am going to have use a different program to create DVDs. But for making the movies to go on the DVD, Adobe Premiere Elements is excellent.
 My Head Hurts... November 30, 2008

I was excited to receive this product. But after a couple hours with it, I haven't accomplished anything and my head hurts.
Help - Online... What if I'm not connected to internet? No Help?
Add Files... No search and add to repository - must go find files manually?
Add Media... File browser hoplessly general AND hopelessly specific - can't get "all movies" or "all still images", etc.
Organizer... Project oriented - means must search elements for every project...
- every drag and drop changes view away from last selected
Capture... Found webcam without any problem (wow)
Drag Clips... After bottom row is full must scroll to drop next clip - doesn't automatically reveal next open box
Video Sizing - no key-sequence or other control to maintain aspect ratio
I thrashed through a number of attempts to configure the product for easy follow-up use. I didn't manage to configure the software for anything but the current project.
Thrash was the mode of operation and very quickly grew tiresome.
There's a lot of power here but it just looks like a program written for programmers who live to program. For people who want to get in, get something done, and get on with life, it's a disaster.
I gave it a medium rating because even though it's not for me, I am sure there are people who will love the thrash, gadgets and do-dads.
Highly recommended for the typical user November 30, 2008

Overall, Adobe Premiere Elements 7 is a great program for the casual video enthusiast. Having used Premiere Elements 4 for a while, this new version is a nice step up. One of the most useful features is what Adobe calls "Smart Tagging," which makes it easier to organize and use video clips. A new feature is the ability to make composite videos, which uses a kind of "green screen" means to isolate a person or object from one scene to use in another. The program also includes more dramatic effects for scene transitions. Many people will be tempted to over-use some of these novel features before realizing that they can quickly become annoying to viewers. One of the most useful features in this program enables the user to drag-and-drop scenes into place or move to a new position. I found Premiere Elements 7 to be fairly intuitive and easy to use. The learning curve is not as steep as it is for Premiere Pro CS4 (nor is it as expensive), and for most users this program will provide more than enough features to keep things interesting for some time to come. I highly recommend this version for the typical user.
