Camtasia vs Camstudio

Well, this one was an easy win hands down! Camtasia has so much more to offer and it pretty user friendly. I did struggle  briefly at first but I think it was because I just wasn't focused on what I was doing. After re-focusing it was much easier. When I set it up initially to automatically zoom in....it didn't . So, I did have to put in all my own zooms, etc but it was easy enough to do. I thought the zooms were very smooth and worked well.

Although, I did not have any trouble with Camstudio I do think it is limited...however hard to beat the price...FREE.

In the long run if this is something that I would want to use a lot it would make sense to invest in Camtasia.
