  • Epic 5K 300fps resizing to 1080

    Posted by Andrew Smith on February 2, 2012 at 2:57 pm

    Hello again

    I am curious to know the best way to scale to fit 1080 a shot I have which is Epic 2048×854 300fps. I was just going to use ‘Zoom’ on the input sizing setting in color tab but i am curious if there is a more precise way to do this so i know its exactly 1920×1080 matching the rest of the framing of shots in my timeline? Also I am pretty sure i remember reading in the manual about guides or grids for different dimensions . deliveries?

    Any help would be great
    thanks

    Hi.

    If you have 1080p timeline and zoom out there then you get 1080p material out of it.

    Question is if you scale vertical fit or horisontal or pan vertical fit somehow.

    Does not seem brainer.

    I see what you are wondering there. I tested the Zoom (under Color tab) quality with some regular 4K and 5K RED material. I zoomed in to get as close as 1:1 pixel ratio in Resolve (output 1080p) and then compared the image with 1:1 pixel ratio 4K and 5K images. The results were subjectivly very good. Sadly didn’t have any resolution chart material available. So I wouldn’t worry about the image quality, just use Zoom setting cause its so easy to use if you have mixed resolution material.

    1080 devided by 854 equals 1,26463700234192 zoom factor. You can put it in as a zoom value.

    PS. Let us know if you figure out better workflow to the problem.
