Aspect ratio conversion / confusion
Hi all.
I am trying to get my head around an aspect ratio problem.I have footage shot in DVCAM 16:9 on a Sony HVRZ1 camera.
I need to output the project in 4:3.
What is the cleanest way of resizing the project for 4:3 playback?
Also.
Some clips are importing in anamorphic 4:3.
It makes for some crazy clips…. but not what is required.Regards
Vladimir. -

16:9 is 4:3 anamorphic. When you tick anamorphic on the clip it displays correctly as 16:9 in FCP.
In standard def everything is 4:3. So you can have 4:3 full height (normal standard TV), 4:3 anamorphic (displays as 16:9 on suitable monitor) and 4:3 letterbox (displays as 16:9 with black bars on normal standard TV)
