  • retaining 16:9 ratio when I export stills

    Posted by Rob Castilla on July 6, 2006 at 3:19 am

    I have stills from an easy setup HD720p24 sequence with 16:9 aspect ratio. When I exporta a quicktime still image it gets compressed to 4:3 when I bring it into photoshop. There is no 16:9 option the save menu for exporting as a still. Any advice?

    The reason it looks 4:3 is because 720p isn’t actually 1280X720 it’s actually 960X720. Occasionally I can make a freeze frame of the shot, set in and out points, then export ‘using quick time conversing’.
    The only definite way to fix this is to export it normally then reset the image size to 1280X720 in photoshop.
