Something like Snapz-Pro for Windows

I need to do video screen captures on a windows Machine (yes, I know, but it has to be on a windows machine, subjects dealing with Internet Explorer, yadda, yadda). Is there something like Snapz-Pro for windows that can hopefully export to a mov format that FCP will like? I don't mind spending some $$ if it does the job.

Thanks.

Camtasia is the gold standard. Hit versiontracker,com and search for screen capture utilties for Windows.

Yes, Camtasia (and Snagit for screen shots) is the way to go with Windows.

But - you could probably run Win XP inside VmWare or Parallels (inside a window) - and use Snapz to capture that - if you wanted a Mac-only solution - and use the Quicktime file output from Snapz.

Camatasia may not produce the file format you'd most like to work with - I've just used it for producing Flash output (but I only have the previous version of Camtasia, so things may have changed).
