I am in a similar situation, looking for new video editing software.

I have a mac & use a GH2.

I have downloaded a trial version of Adobe premiere. Its a bit slow but not sure if it will be the same with the purchased version.
Any other suggestions

I want the basics of editing +
1.Ability to white balance,change colour tones.
2. Ability to use slow motion/fast motion for part of video clips
3. Stability to minimise camera shake.

I do have FCP X and let me tell you that you should have a good machine to support it. I had my 2009 Macbook Pro with a 8 gb of RAM and FCP X is taking every single free RAM that is left on your Computer and got very unstable
. I finally bought a new IMac i7 with a 16 gb RAM upgraded. It runs nice and smooth. iMovie is a very good choice and allows you to white balance correction.
 
Think I'll stay with what I have now, not sure can get hearts and flowers cheezy templates with Sony Vegas, the color balance in the Vegas HD 10 is really incredible with three color wheels to play with but if you white balance the camera, less need for it.

I'll keep your offer for help with Vegas Pro in mind, in hind sight, an Ausus republic of Gamers win 7 64 bit notebook and sony Vegas PRO 11 64 bit would have been cheaper than than a MacBook Pro with iMovie I bought and faster too. Hindsight is a b..tch

I still wonder why Nikon has better stuff in the P&S s8100 than the DSLRs. HD 1080P 60fps and the compresion is only 4:1, most is 12:1, almost raw
