Can someone guide me? I am bringing stills into premier. It will stretch the image to fill the screen. what do I nee to do to retain the aspect ratio and not distort the picture but still have it full screen?

Thanks,

Kev

Right click on the image in the timeline, select video options, maintain aspect ratio.

It is usually the simplist stuff that makes you feel completely dense. Premiere is great, and I feel, the most natural to use. As a side note- you will want to use a flicker filter on those still images, otherwise they might look funny on the tele.
