Could one use all features on the beta release and maybe save the files? Need the new sharpening function..
so far i have checked, everything in it works
Video editing is too slow to be of much use, as far as I can tell. Maybe it doesn't work well with prores.

@Oedipax What graphics card do you have? All the new stuff in CS6 does really benefit from GPU support. But anyway I really think PS needs a UI cleanup, before they even pack more stuff into it. All the new tools and Filters are starting to get spread out through the whole interface and inconsistent in there integration :(
@markus_b, it's an ATI 5870 at the moment. Not sure where PS CS6 stands as far as CUDA or OpenCL etc. I'll probably end up getting that new nVidia card with a ton of cores at some point.
That card should support GPU acceleration. At least for the PS core stuff (filters etc.). Don't know 'bout the video part, Premiere 5.5 only supported Nvidia Cards.
Ingests native .mts files, which is nice.
Even ingests native R3D, whoohoo!
