Hello~
I am still with pinnacle studio. I have purchased vegas hoping I will like it better than pinnacle. With pinnacle I have different transitions. For instance, when I am editing a video with sports there are transitions that have to do with that sport, like a golf club and golf ball transition. Wedding video, I can find a wedding bells transition. Does sony vegas offer transitions like that?

No such transitions with Vegas. Maybe someone here can give creative alternatives.

One thing I've done is put a small "transitional" clip between two segments, and use the built-in transitions within Vegas. For instance, for a vacation video I had some shots of waves crashing in. I put a small segment of that, with sound, between two clips and then used the built-in transitions to go from clip A to transition clip to clip B. It worked pretty well, and at least in my humble opinion looked better than some of the cheesy "clip art" stuff I've seen for transitions.

No, Vegas Studio does not offer that kind of transitions. And ,yes Vegas Studio is, in my opinion, better than Pinnacle's Studio 9 /Plus. What you can do is buy some CG graphics and then use them as transitions using the overlay video track. It works for me.
