Well we can talk about CS6, apparently. I just received a notification. AE CS 6 has many exciting new features, most notably a 3D camera tracker which allows for the tracking of footage, creating cameras that correspond to the footage and the subsequent placement of text and other elements in 3D space.

Another great feature is native 3D in AE which includes extruding and bevelling AE text, creating environment maps and importing vector objects such as illustrator files and converting them to extruded objects right inside an AE comp.

While there are other 3D plug in solutions for 3D objecta, AE CS6 allows for these native 3D elements to truly be integrated with AE lights, cameras, layers, etc, unlike plug ins.

A nifty hash cash disk cashes layers making AE more of a real time machine, quickly recalling data for layers, even restoring a previous ram preview instance by undoing back to a previously ram preview situation.

I've been running CS 6 in heavy production and it is very stable and I'm excited to let other AE users know that it's coming soon.
