How far can I scale from HDV to SD?
Hello,
I'm somewhat new to this... I have HDV footage of sea life (dolphins, whales, etc) which I would like a bit closer. End product is regular DV Widescreen. I know I can "zoom in" in Final Cut--but is there an exact scale setting that equals DV resolution? I'm working under the assumption that I can crop off HDV's "extra" pixels without harming those that remain. I'm trying to see how far I can zoom in without losing resolution (in DV). Thanks! --Darin |
Drop your HD footage onto a normal SD timeline ("sequence") and you should get a 1:1 ratio. You can then move it around and get what you want in frame.

In theory you should be able to zoom in as much as 200% and still get usable results, but in practice I've found 150% to be a more realistic limit.

I've noticed that pulling in .m2t file into a SD time line, the zoom affect doesn't translate very well. When you use Cineform intermediate do you have better results ? |
