Sony Vegas Movie Studio vs. Movie Studio Platinum

[logicisfailing.livejournal.com]

Hi Everybody!

I'm considering buying Sony Vegas Movie Studio or Movie Studio Platinum. I don't plan on using the software to edit anything professionally, just fanvids and other projects for my own amusement. I'm leaning toward Movie Studio right now, because it seems a little simpler, but I don't want to spend $50 bucks and still not have the tools to do something more complicated if I choose to. So, what features is Movie Studio lacking that would be an issue when editing videos? Does it have any masking or color correction features/abilities, or is that just Movie Studio Platinum?

I'd appreciate any advice or information you could share :-)
