Very informative, thank you. I have been using Shotcut for a while and wrote a frei0r plugin but it needs migrating to the new 10 bit MLT framework. I have been using Shotcut with 4K footage and it is indeed very slow so I have been using proxy files.

I did have PowerDirector but have been very disappointed with it so wrote a converter to convert their format to Shotcut's XML format so I can move my projects to Shotcut.

Ideally I'd use DaVinci Resolve but as the free one doesn't support 10 bit I can't try any of the HLG videos I shot on holiday.

For our use-case, a $50 course package sale for getting Blender -> Fusion workflow just made sense.

Compared to other options, the one-time cost was our best tradeoff for the project. It was a much better value than adobe subscriptions water-marking everything. A low bar to clear, but important to some...

Cinelerra GG should have EXR and 10bit support, but our folks had a hard time figuring out the program even with a manual. ymmv =3
