Optimum way to prepare still imagees for FCP help!!!!
I have 35 mm. slides that I am using in a FCP project. Can anyone tell me what is the best way to bring these photos into the timeline??
IE: image size, DPI, file extension, RGB vs. CMWK, bit type…Thanks for any info!

Image size: video is 720×480 (or 486, depending on if you are editing DV or uncompressed 8-bit), so if you want to do any sort of moves on them, they should be larger…like double. And keep the photos aspect ratio.
DPI: Unimportant. 300, or 3…the picture would look the same if the pixel dimensions were the same. But if you want to but in a number, put 72
RGB. CMYK is a print format.
PNG, TIFF, GIF. No JPEGs. PSD works too.

And it’s very well spelled out in the manual, in the FCP on-line help, and in thousands of previous posts to this forum.
A search won’t waste people’s time, and will get you the answer much, much faster.
