I was just wondering if anyone had a chance to play with http://www.seriousmagic.com/ukoverview.cfm and what is the quality compared to Vegas.

Vegas and Serious Magic Ultra are complementary...not competitors. Serious Magic Ultra just came out with even more digital sets that are absolutely fantastic. Serious Magic Ultra produces .avi files that are then composited in Vegas to prodce the final render. Great stuff and a lot of fun. VERY pricey, though.

Seriously too expensive for me and the amount of green screen I do.

Vegas is OK if lit properly and there is enough separation between talent and screen. We backlight with amber as well.
