Sony Vegas "Movie Studio 8" does not let you mask. A Easy Solution That Is Free!, is To download "Inkscape" ( free adobe InDesign/Photoshop Cs3 Program) there you can easily create a lightsaber then import it into Sony Vegas. "Sony Vegas Pro 8.0" however will allow masking
We have Sony Vegas 8 Pro and it edits HD footage. I don't know about 7.
Sony Vegas 9 Platinum does not, but Sony Vegas Pro does
No, the download is free.
