    Hi I tried to stabalize the motion shot by hand held camera. the motion became stable but it crops the end of images as it tries to stabalize the image. is there any work around not to see those cropped edges besides creating a mask over it? thankyou

    No, except to enlarge the image after stabilizing.

    To stabilize the image, it has to be moved in the opposite direction. This reveals the edge of the image. If you think about it, the only way AE could avoid showing the edge would be to automatically generate new scenery at the edge of the frame, and that’s impossible for a computer to do unless the scenery at the edges consists of a solid colour.

    So if you have solid blue sky at the edges, you might be able to do it, possibly by cloning it yourself before you apply the stabilizer.
